As we enter the Information Age, products are no longer only electrical and mechanical, but also include computing and networked capability. Designing products highly interactive in nature becomes much more complex than before going beyond the traditional realm of Industrial Design. Moreover, the fundamental definition of a product is being challenged and requires a fundamental shift in thinking as well as new work methods. How people interact with products, systems or environments and its social and cultural impact is what Interaction Design is concerned about. Keywords: Interaction design, user experience, networked products, interdisciplinary, industrial design. 1 Introduction Traditional products are mechanical and electrical like toasters, shavers, walkmans etc. With todays increased computing power, miniaturized chips and the advent of the Internet, this drastically alters the meaning of traditional products. Industrial Design has always dealt with how people interact with things, designing for a products form factor, ergonomics, psychonomics etc. Computing and networked products introduces a new dimension of interactivity beyond with its physical form, but extends to the digital arena. Now that most products are embedded computing with complex interaction, what should industrial designers design in the information and digital age? How should industrial designers innovate for these new breeds of products? 2 Product nature redefined in the Information Age 2.1 Products are sof
