This article investigates the daily status and needs of mildly disabled elderly people in the Chengdu & Chongqing region with methods such as questionnaire survey, in-depth interviews, natural observation, literature review, big data mining and analysis, design testing and evaluation ,and then analyze the characteristics of existing products in the market, and apply research on natural interaction technology and emotional design theory. Through theoretical application research, research, and experimental testing, the aging design strategy, methods, and principles of intelligent products were obtained. Through practice, a set of home-based elderly care service products and interface design solutions for the mildly disabled elderly in the Chengdu & Chongqing region were proposed.
