  Abstract

This study aims to provide the possibility for future expansion of smart clothing through an analysis of interfaces based on user-centered design. This study designed interfaces for users that intuitively follow the needs of users of heated garments. Participants were asked to analyze the various elements of the system by wearing a smart heated garment in various situations in order to assess the objective performance, subjective usage satisfaction, acceptance, and differences of interfaces. The comprehensive analysis of the usability evaluation and user acceptance showed that interfaces based on usercentered design can give satisfaction to users. Furthermore, the textile switch which we developed provides more satisfaction and acceptance for use than do other interfaces because of its ease of use and accessability. This study provides additional meaningful information and improvements in the interfaces based on user-centered design of smart heated clothing.
