Product design is an interdisciplinary subject that integrates user needs, technical feasibility and aesthetic expression, aiming to solve problems of products in terms of function, form and interaction through systematic design thinking. The core of it is to start from the relationship of "people - products - environment", create products that have both practicality and emotional value, covering fields such as consumer electronics, household goods, medical devices, and transportation vehicles. Unlike pure art, product design emphasizes commercial feasibility and user experience optimization, and is a combination of technological innovation and humanistic care.
