Abstract

No matter it is during cold winter or sunny summer season, wearing gloves is crucial as a hand protection for motorcycle riders. Therefore, a proper design of motorcycle gloves is fairly necessary for the market. Through a wide range of thinking and design improvements, the study proposes a design of motorcycle gloves which are suitable and comfortable for any motorcycle rider as the anthropometry data of adult hand size and ergonomics principles are utilized during the initial stage of product development and design. TRIZ was applied to improve and enhance the product design with an emphasis on the first seven features from the questionnaire. Many features of the designed motorcycle gloves are described. At last, this research completes the drawings of the proposed motorcycle gloves with Adobe Photoshop.
