CHAPTER 7. CONCLUSIONS
7.3 Limitations and Future Works
(1) Facilitate stakeholders to co-create with each other based on the activity.
We give relative stakeholders guide that the service-oriented products can follow to value-cocreate their services with suitable functions and to focus on develop the value cocreation services which are attractive to the users. They will use new integrated services to get target users enjoy their life not only from the view of health condition, but also from the view of life meaning. They now more easily understand what they can do to improve the quality of life.
(2) Facilitate wearable devices producer to pay attention to comprehensive measurement.
We build a framework about how physical data connect with activity and emotion that can give users more targeted suggestion. With the development of smart devices, users need more professional guidance behind the measurement. What is more, from the view of service science, the goal value of wearable devices is the service they can offer, not the product themselves.
(3) Facilitate baby boomers to understand their life style in a new way.
Baby boomers, which are regarded as health old people, not only can keep healthy, but also enjoy their life through our services. With the goal of wellbeing and the theory of PERMA, we try to quantify happiness in five parts - engagement and positive emotion are related simply with physical data.
7.3 Limitations and Future Works (1) The integrity of raw data
The integrity of raw data in the experiment needs to be improved. A certain number of data are lost in the process of synchronization from the wearable devices and our system. The reason is that Fitbit needs to update data manually and Spire needs to open app often to make sure app is active in background that our users often forget to open the app to do that.
(2) The veracity of algorithm and the patterns of activity and emotion
Although the result of measurement is near the actual conditions, the algorithm is still simple that needs to be improved in the future. More types of data can be added in order to distinguish more patterns of activities like work, study etc. Especially, the data of location need to be detected correctly with the help of GPS in the smart phone.
The patterns of emotion are so limited that need to be improved, too.

(3) User experience of using wearable devices and services
Although we pick up two commercial products as our experiment devices, the experience of two wearable devices is not good enough so that it means the producers need to improve their products and related services. In the future, we can realize the data real-time function and then give real-time activity suggestions.
(4) An application interface for apps
From the suggestion of the user, it will be more attractive to them if we can package the mechanism into a standardized application interface for apps. Due to the fact that they often forget the website address and fail to open the website. Thus, an app is not only convenient for them to open, but also a reminder to them about our services.
