Abstract:
The paper applies a method, which combines the modified FUZZY DANP with the modified FUZZY ARAS, to select the prioritized function improvement plan for surgical light. First of all, the paper reviews the related patent literature and various patent analyses about the product of surgical light, and uses the functional words of the patents to screen out the criteria of product functions, which are divided into six functional fields. The paper takes these six functional fields as the criteria for function evaluation in selecting the improvement plans of a new surgical light product. The paper takes three product functional improvement plans of surgical light as the selection plans. These three functional improvement plans are: plan A: Enhancement of convenience of operation + Enhancement of lighting efficiency; plan B: Improvement of heat dissipation and service life + Enhancement of lighting efficiency; and plan C: Enhancement of convenience of operation + Improvement of heat dissipation and service life. Through combining product functions with the modified FUZZY DANP and the modified FUZZY ARAS, the prioritized weight values of the improvement plans can be obtained, and the prioritized product function improvement plan for surgical light can be selected.
