Abstract
With the increase in the elderly population, problems caused by aging have gradually emerged. Aging may cause the elderly inconvenience in using many household objects that are not specifically designed for the elderly. Therefore, industrial designers should try to redesign household objects to enhance living quality for the elderly. This study used nail clipper design as an example to show how to apply ergonomic methods in product design.
