본 논문은 노인용 실버제품 개발을 위하여 70~84세 노년 여성을 대상으로 3차원 측정 손 관련 치수를 분석하고, 노년 여성의 손을 유형화하여 그 특성을 알아보고자 하였다. 이를 통해 노인용 실버제품 개발에 필요한 정보를 제공하고자 하였다. 노년 여성의 손 구성 요인은 손과 손가락 수평 요인, 손 수직 요인, 새끼손가락 굵기 요인, 손가락 길이 요인 등이 추출되었다. 노년 여성의 손은 3개 유형으로 분류되었다. 긴 손 길고 가는 손가락 유형, 굵고 긴 손가락 두꺼운 손 유형, 짧은 손과 손가락 굵은 새끼손가락 유형으로 나뉘어졌다. 연령이 높아질수록 손가락 마디가 굵어지고 손의 크기가 커지는 것으로 알려졌으나 80대가 되면 다시 손이 가늘어지는 변화가 나타났다. 70대까지는 연령이 증가함에 따라 손가락도 굵어지는 현상이 나타났다.

본 연구에서는 고령화 시대에 발맞춰 실버산업의 한 분야인 실버용품 디자인 시 계획되어야 할 중요한 요소인 색채에 대해 다루었다. 현재 국내 노인 관련 색채 연구는 미흡한 실정이며 특히 실버용품을 위한 색채 연구는 매우 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구는 실버용품 사용주체인 국내 60세 이상의 노인을 대상으로 색채연구를 진행함으로써 향후 실버용품 색채 계획에 대한 기초자료로 활용하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 실제 실버용품의 색상 및 색의 3속성(색상, 명도, 채도)에 대한 노인들의 심리적 선호도를 조사하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 얻은 결론은 남녀 모두 명도가 높은 밝은 색상을 선호하였고, 여성의 경우 무려 89%가 수수한 무채색 보다는 원색인 화려한 색상을 선호하였으며, 남자들 또한 52%가 화려한 색을 선호하였다. 이 결과는 현재 시중에 판매되고 있는 실버용품이 무채색인 흰색, 회색, 검정색이 대부분인 것을 감안하면 실버용품의 색채계획이 노인의 실제 선호색과는 다르다는 것을 보여준다. 본 연구를 통하여 조사된 색채선호도는 향후 실버용품 색채계획 시 주요한 고려사항으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Based on the dualistic distribution of each section, the names of the sections indicating high distribution are suggested. For suit tops, 11 sizes are selected as distributed in the 145-155cm stature section and 91-103cm bust section. For casual tops, nine sizes are selected as distributed in the 145-155cm stature section and 90-105cm bust section.

This research studied the development of high functional wear that reflects the various needs of an aged population. A survey of the life style, body functions and body changes, cognition, and preference of high functional wear with a subject group of 342 women aged 50's-60's was conducted. The results show that these women showed a high interest in clothing, challenged to new tasks, and enjoyed social meetings. Women aged 50's and 60's showed a relatively vibrant and active tendency, with no difference between them. They had the most interest in health and diet. The development of various clothing items and designs for women in their fifties and sixties are required because exercise was the most favored leisure activity. Meanwhile, they showed indisposition according to body type changes and the decrease in body functions. There was also some discomfort due to changes in visual power and trouble in controlling the body temperature. Therefore, the need to develop high quality smart wear that can help improve these problems was raised. Women aged 50's to 60's did not fully understand smart clothing; however, they showed some interest in high quality smart wear designed to improve health conditions after they heard detailed explanations about the clothing. They perceived the matter of laundry or managing he clothing more important than the price or rejection to mechanical device in regards to smart wear.
