Firstly, the auxiliary innovation of bathroomproducts based on artificial intelligence technology is proposed, then the user characteristicsare analysed, and the auxiliary design framework of bathroom products is designed. Finally, theinnovation model is established to realise the auxiliary innovation design of bathroom products.Experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively improve the interactionefficiency and response time, and reduce the false response.展开更多
