"How do designers research potential markets to ensure they create products that meet the needs of users and are inclusive, irrespective of age or ability? This DVD provides three examples drawn from: Textiles (a smart cushion for office workers and the elderly); Resistant Materials (children's bikes); and Graphics/Packaging (redesign of the mobile phone experience). It shows how designers: consider the values and needs of users; determine the intended market or user and make use of ergonomics and anthropometrics. It also discusses how designers can respond to the challenges of demographic change and inclusive design."--Summary and bracketed information from http://www.pumpkintv.co.uk/dt/design_sustain/design_sustain.html (viewed 9/20/10).
