情感聯繫是家庭環境所應賦予家人的基本條件，生活中家庭成員常因生活忙碌，導致彼此生活圈與作息不同，家庭在溝通聯繫上已無法提供足夠的聯繫能力，情感上便產生疏離感，本研究藉由對家庭中溝通方式的探索，發展可供家人共同使用的聯繫平台。針對家庭所應賦予的情感訴求來建構地點環境與成員之間的聯繫管道，使用遠端同步的留言互動方式與其他成員進行溝通，並建構「遠端家庭情感聯繫系統」來探討位於家中定點裝置(Situated display)與其他環境的網路分享裝置如何產生家人與地點間(Person to place)非即時(Asynchronous)的傳遞模式，使家庭情感藉由家中環境聯繫點的分享，擴展至整體生活面的感知狀態，讓家人能夠在不同的地點與環境，去參與感知彼此的生活經驗，並視覺化環境所能賦予家人間的情感需求，轉化情感資訊於家庭環境中。

以跨地域分離狀態的家庭成員作為主要研究對象，透過環境中的網路平台來提供家人間的訊息感知(Information Awareness)，透過家人的留言行為去牽動家庭成員與所在環境的聯繫互動，使之融入彼此的生活中。轉化人們使用傳統便利貼的操作語彙，來發展系統平台，讓不同地域的家庭成員能在相同的分享平台上傳遞生活經驗，觸發家人間的聯繫動機，使家庭成員具有共通的生活經驗與聯繫環境，拉近彼此的情感距離與感受背景資訊帶給家庭成員的環境變化與行為改變。

經使用者操作與訪談了解 (1) 「遠端家庭情感聯繫系統」在家庭生活與溝通上能提供彼此互動與共同經驗(Co-experience)的聯繫關係。 (2) 成員將透過不同的網路工具去進行環境的聯繫溝通與訊息傳遞，並構成跨地域的聯繫網絡關係。 (3) 透過系統「非即時的訊息」保存方式，提供家庭成員更多訊息產生的容許空間，使成員在透過非即時的分享方式去思緒所想要表達的內容，並透過公開分享的方式，讓家人能透過彼此的聯繫內容來感知對方的狀態，增進彼此生活上的了解與觸發關懷的聯繫動機。 (4) 操作方式保留傳統便利貼(Memostick)的使用方式，結合傳統手繪，錄影與文字訊息，使接收端能夠強烈的感受到家人所想表達的訊息內容。 (5) 本系統建構家人共通的使用平台，減低操作的複雜度，讓對象單純化，使系統成為不同年齡層的生活訊息入口。

最終提出未來生活環境在家庭聯繫上的發展建議，並歸納系統在家庭使用上對環境與成員的影響與改變。

Emotional relation is the basic but necessary condition provided by family member, Influence of the realistic environmental factor, contacts within family members do not provide sufficient inter-relationship communication skill, this case of communication in the traditional family a way, the ones that offer contacted the platform for family to use together. The emotion demand is that the family should offer, built and constructed the relation between the environment and member, in the distant place use message news communicate、interact a way with the family member, is it construct family carry emotion contact system discuss the Situated display How to produce Person to place in sharing the device network of and other environments. Transmission way immediately, Emotional relation is the Environment connection point share by family, expand state of perceiving to and the whole life, make household can in different place and environment, go to participate in perceiving mutual experience of life, the vision environment can give home a emotion demand of human world, environmental information is transformed in family's environment.

The family member is across from different place to the main object of study; in the environment background used network platform the family need Information Awareness, affect a family the contact interaction of the member and place environment background through the message behavior of family's, the life integrated each other in。The usage convenience posts of message loading way, develop the message platform of system, can not used different region of the family member can go up to deliver experience in the life in the same sharing platform, Through each other of the message deliver to the contact and the feeling of triggering family's, make the family member's have common life experience and contact environment, with this emotion distance which draws near each other, the family that information bring with feeling background the member's environment variety and behavior change。

Operate and interview understanding by the user (1) The emotion contact system can produce each other to interact at home life and communication top and common the contact relation with experience。(2) The member will carry on the environment information which contacts a communication to deliver, and constitute to across the region dispersion type contact a network through the different operation tool。(3) Keep a way through the system not- instant communication message, provide a family member's more messages to allow space, make member at through share a way not and right away it to want to express to the thoughts and feelings of content, and use the way of public sharing, Let family can through each other of the contact content knows the appearance of the other party to the feeling, promoting each other of understanding on the life with trigger the contact motive of concern。
(4) The usage behavior operated way reservation a tradition convenience to post, promote an user in the operational adaptability, and adopt a traditional hand to draw a performance, combine to record image and writing message, letting the emotion integrate a message content, making to receive to carry can be the content feeling that the strong feeling family express。 (5) This system also constructs a different family member to constitute a common usage platform, turning down complications of operation and object, let the different age range be able to deliver and receive to carry simplicity to turn in the message, make the platform become information entrance and sharing to carry, let the different family member carry on the expectation feeling which looks into a content message then and cultivate habitually in get into the space field the area.
