Abstract

As urban populations continue to age, metro signage systems frequently exhibit poor readability, semantic ambiguity, and unfriendly interaction for elderly passengers. This study examines existing obstacles in signage design across information acquisition, semantic understanding, and physical interaction dimensions. Orthogonal experiments collect user ratings under multiple constraints, combined with AHP for weight ranking and Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation to quantify feedback. A set of age-friendly signage design guidelines is distilled, providing reference for urban rail transit retrofitting.
