摘要

台灣因低出生率與低死亡率，高齡人口逐年升高，且身心障礙的人口也日益增加，因此重視弱勢族群的意識逐漸抬頭。在先進的歐美日本等國家，從Universal Design的觀點，發展符合更多使用者需求的產品或環境。過去，多數研究以使用者為導向的觀點探討Universal Design的發展，然而商業利基為Universal Design衍生的概念之一，本研究從企業之觀點，探討Universal Design在企業中的定位，並以Fujitsu、NEC等企業為例，了解其Universal Design於設計與開發的應用情形。產品開發與使用者之間具有互相影響的連結性。當企業發展更適合使用者且更經濟的產品或環境，不但可提供優質的使用環境，更提供低價高使用性的產品、以企業的觀點而言，產品具有高度競爭力，相對也提昇企業之形象。因此，本文除了探討二企業發展Universal Design的概況，並針對使用者與企業開發的連結性作一初步探討。

In recent times, with the upgrading of living standards, more and more attention have been paid to the product development and design for the elderly and the disabled. In the viewpoint of enterprises, product development should pay attention to user's needs, and have the economic effect of the product. This study is to understand the orientation of the product development using universal design from the viewpoints of users and enterprises. The results showed that there's inter-influenced connection between the product development and the users. If the enterprises develop more economical products/environments which were more suitable for users, they can not only provide high-grade environment for operation but also provide low-cost and high-usability products. As a viewpoint of an enterprise, the products will be high competitive and promote enterprise image.
