Abstract

Consumer’s personalized requirements, or the so-called Kansei needs, have become one of the most important concerns in product customization system. Due to the vagueness and uncertainty of consumers’ requirements, the Fuzzy Semantic Differential (FSD) method has been used in the process of the customized product design to build the relationships between the consumer’s personalized requirements and the feature parameters of the product. The FSD method is used to evaluate the 3-D product model. According to the result of the Kansei evaluation, the feature parameters of the 3-D product are adjusted to suit the customer’s preference. This method is used and illustrated using a case study on men’s suit. The results show that the proposed method is promising in dealing with evaluating the customer’s requirement for the customized product.
