Creating Elderly Communities Through Everyday Life: A Cash Register That Makes Shopping Enjoyable
The “Smile Register" project proposes a cash register that diverges from the trend of self-checkout machines, enabling elderly customers to engage in leisurely conversations with cashiers during shopping. The aim is to alleviate loneliness, increase repeat customers, and transform shopping into an opportunity for communication.
What is a Degree Project
Students set their project theme freely and discover solutions.
Research for individual degree projects is performed through seminars. We invite stakeholders of the company, administrative body, or the like to 2 briefing sessions (mid-term and final) as external evaluators,getting feedback on research from perspectives including novelty and feasibility. Students incorporate that into a report and announce their results at a public presentation.
