Abstract

The main purpose of the study is to determine how transforming power of
IOT may affect the unique system of knowledge of the industrial design field in
terms of legitimacy, practice, and education. The investigation is based on the
larger question of whether IOT functions as transducer on jurisdictional
boundaries of field and how the new tasks and work activities of industrial
design field may response in general. Answering these questions will bring
community closer to understanding of the need of a different designer
formulation, a possible sub-field within the design discipline and ways of how
future practitioners and to strengthen their career lifespan.
