隨著科技不斷進步、企業對於未開發市場的渴望以及人道精神的發揚，越來越多人將目光聚焦到資源較貧乏的地區。其中Prahalad教授將生活在該地區的民眾歸類在金字塔底層族群，對此區人民定義許多創新準則幫助他們脫離貧困。本研究整合仿生設計方法、TRIZ創新設計方法以及金字塔底層創新準則，並著眼於仿生設計的優點能適切對應在金字塔底層設計需求的特性，將仿生學的概念結合TRIZ，進而應用於金字塔底層族群。此外本研究亦將相關案例整理成金字塔底層創新資料庫，透過索引標籤與相似度計算，可以提供設計者產品創新設計案例與TRIZ創新準則之生物關鍵字，進而利用生物關鍵字的搜尋方法導引設計者設計符合金字塔底層需求的仿生創新設計。並發展適用於金字塔底層的產品檢核標準來評估該設計是否可運用於金字塔底層區域
本研究提出一套創新設計流程，透過物質場的概念替設計者釐清問題，結合TRIZ創新法則與金字塔底層創新資料庫產生生物關鍵字，並以關鍵字搜尋適合的生物案例作應用，再利用生物資源檢核法檢視此生物案例與設計問題的相關性，並檢視其具有的資源導引設計者產生仿生創新設計。最後則使用金字塔底層產品檢核標準評估該設計是否具有可行性。

With the progress of technology, eagerness for untapped markets from enterprises, promotion of the humanitarian spirit, the society gradually focus their attention on the regions suffering from resources deficiency. Dr.Prahalad described those who lives in these areas with a certain term "Bottom of the Pyramid (BoP)". He defined various innovative principles to aid them getting rid of the impoverished situation. This thesis will integrate Biomimetic design method, TRIZ theory and BOP innovative principles, make the characteristics of outstanding correspondence between the advantages of Biomimetic design and the needs of BoP design more specified, integrate the concepts of Biomimics into TRIZ theory, then proceed to BoP community application. This thesis collects related cases to form a BoP innovative database as well. Through the selection of index tags and the calculation of similarity with the existed cases, biomimetic keywords from TRIZ innovative principles are available for designers.
Designers are capable of using Biomimetic searching method with the keywords to guide themselves to have an innovative Biomimetic design which matches the needs of BoP. This thesis develops inspecting standard for BoP products to evaluate the design is applicable for BoP regions or not.
This thesis presents a progress of innovative design, which includes analyzing the difficulty through the ideas of Substance-Field Analysis, combining TRIZ innovative principles with BoP database to produce biomimetic keywords and leads to searching appropriate biological cases, inspecting the correlation between the biological cases and design problems with biological resources inspecting method to guild designers to generate innovative Biomimetic designations, and assessing the designation with standard for BoP products.
