Hierarchical Features in Design Attributes of Region- and Racial Trait-Harmonized Products

Abstract

Manufacturing system concepts today are two-pronged: one concept directs to the highly automatized system on the extension of the computer-integrated flexible manufacturing and the other is of human-centered type, involving the “Multiple Ethnic Cooperation Type” as its upmost leading one. In the later case, at issue is the objective product. The Region- and Racial Trait-Harmonized Product (R 2 HP) is considered as an potential concept. This concept has so far been proposed based on forerunning investigations of such products. Assuming the R 2 HP as to be an expectable product in the future society, this paper deals with the clarification of the essential and characteristic features in design attributes of the R 2 HP, emphasizing the hierarchical features within it. In addition, leading attributes of the R 2 HP are in close relation to culture, mindset andracial trait facets, and thus, the paper touches on the conversion concept of such ambiguous factors to technological quantified specifications.
