Potential Commercial Applications

"Enhancing Product Design through User Classification and Analysis"

Possible Prior Art

There may be prior art related to eye-tracking technology in market research and product design to understand user behavior and preferences.

Unanswered Questions

1. How does the device handle privacy concerns related to collecting gaze information? 2. What are the limitations of the classification system in terms of accuracy and scalability?


Original Abstract Submitted

in order to generate and present information that is effective for preparing and determining a product design, a product-design generation support device according to the present invention is provided with an acquisition unit, a classification unit, and an output unit. the acquisition unit acquires design information representing a target design for a target product, as well as gaze information of a plurality of target persons in relation to the target design. the classification unit classifies the plurality of target persons into a plurality of groups on the basis of the acquired design information and gaze information. the output unit outputs the result of the classification.
