The work aims to construct a scientific design process for the elderly-friendly smart shoe cabinets in the context of home-based elderly care, and complete and verify the design scheme in response to the actual needs of elderly care in the context of a deeply aging society in China, and in view of the problems such as the neglect of the physiological and psychological characteristics of the elderly by existing smart shoe cabinets, as well as the complexity of operation and potential safety hazards. Firstly, through literature research, the core principles of elderly-friendly design were sorted out. Combined with the body size data of the elderly and the norms of home-based elderly care spaces, the functional boundaries and performance indicators of the smart shoe cabinets were clarified; Secondly, using the Delphi method and the analytic hierarchy process, an evaluation index system was constructed from four dimensions of safety and ease of use, perceptual intelligence, health care, and emotional interaction, to determine the weights of each index, and rank the user needs; Thirdly, based on the user needs ranking obtained from the analytic hierarchy process, the elderly-friendly design scheme for the smart shoe cabinets was completed. Finally, the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method was used to quantitatively evaluate the scheme, verifying the rationality of the scheme and the feasibility and effectiveness of the design process proposed in this study. The evaluation results showed that the designed elderly-friendly design scheme for the smart shoe cabinets meets the actual needs of the elderly, effectively verifying the scientificity and feasibility of the elderly-friendly design process proposed in this study. This research not only provides a specific scheme reference for the elderly-friendly design of smart shoe cabinets, but also provides a theoretical basis and methodological support for the design, improvement, and process optimization of elderly smart household appliances and products, and has important practical significance for improving the quality of home-based elderly care and promoting the innovation of elderly-friendly products.
