Development & Design
To create never-before-seen value, Canon carries out various development and design initiatives, introducing new technologies while leveraging flexible systems we have developed over the years. Through design we not only make use of advanced technologies, but also inspire ideas for new development. Through testing and evaluations that reproduce conditions of actual usage, we strive to develop innovative products from the perspective of users.
Product Design
Canon strives to create products that are convenient, easy to use and elegantly designed, focusing on who will use them and the environments in which they will be used. Giving form to ideas, we believe the role of design is to propose new value by evaluating each product’s ideal form and function.
Product Usability Testing
Canon employs state-of-the-art technologies in the design process and examines the functionality of each product we make from the user’s perspective. For example, our production printing systems are designed to ensure that wheelchair users can fully and easily operate them. Toward this goal, we incorporate universal design in our products.
