Analysis of Direction on Product Design in the Era of the Internet of Things

Internet of things (IoT) as a new revolution in science and technology will bring new vitality to the design. IoT has become the third revolution of the world industry information development after the world experienced the computer and the Internet. With the development of industry information, IoT as Internet service and applications expand through intellisense, identification technology, pervasive computing and ubiquitous network convergence applications. IoT era is the era of intelligent products. This article elaborates on the aspects of design content, design objects, design procedures and methods, means of obtaining design requirements, design tools, and changes in design direction. In the era of IoT, industry designers should focus on the interaction between humans and smart products and the interaction between smart products.
