制定支持老年人的方法至关重要，因为全球老年人的数量正在增长。最近，重点是支持老年人使用信息技术 (IT)，包括物联网 (IoT)。在物联网系统中，摄像头、传感器等物联网工具通过互联网进行连接和交互。此外，我们可以使用智能手机轻松定制它们的功能来调制我们想要的功能。因此，老年人应该定制物联网产品并自助。然而，为老年人定制物联网产品功能具有挑战性，因为他们使用智能手机或电脑的机会比年轻人少。因此，需要其他针对老年人的物联网产品定制方法。在这项研究中，我们设计了一个工作坊来进行测试，其中用户界面（UI）的设置适合老年人。我们开发了三个UI，即语音、触摸和摄像头。为了探索哪种方法适合老年人，我们评估了每种方法的设定时间。因此，语音接口的设置时间比其他接口短。此外，系统可用性量表（SUS）得分高于68分，表明使用语音界面的设置方式对于老年人来说是可以接受的。这些结果表明，语音界面是一种适合老年人的设置方式。
To develop methods for supporting senior citizens is critical because the number of senior citizens is growing globally. Recently, the focus is on supporting senior citizens using information technology (IT), including the Internet of Things (IoT). In the IoT system, IoT tools such as cameras and sensors are connected and interacted by the Internet. Furthermore, we can customize their function easily using smartphones to modulate the function we want. Therefore, senior citizens should customize IoT products and help themselves. However, it is challenging to customize IoT product functions for senior citizens because they had fewer chances to use smartphones or computers than young people. Therefore, other customizing methods for IoT products are needed for senior citizens. In this study, we design a workshop to test, where the setting of the user interface (UI) is suitable for senior citizens. We develop three UIs, namely, voice, touch, and camera. To explore which method is suitable for senior citizens, we evaluate the setting time for each method. Consequently, the setting time of the voice interface is shorter than the others. Furthermore, the system usability scale (SUS) score was higher than 68, indicating that the setting method using the voice interface is acceptable for senior citizens. These results indicate that the voice interface is a suitable setting method for senior citizens.
