During the past 200 years, the [[industrial revolution|industrial revolution]] has caused a considerable effect on human lifestyles [1, 2]. A number of changes occurred [3] with the rapid growth of the economy and technology, including the information revolution [3], the second industrial revolution [4], and biotechnology development. Although such evolution was considerably beneficial to humans, it has caused a number of problems, such as capitalism, utilitarianism, poverty gap, global warming, and an aging population [1, 2]{{citation|title=The Success of the Industrial Revolution and the Failure of Political Revolutions: How Britain got lucky|author=Findlay Dunachie|year=1996|journal=Historical Notes|publisher=Libertarian Alliance|volume=26}}. Because of recent changes, a number of people recognized these crises and appealed for effective solutions [5], for example, the green movement [6], which successfully creates awareness of environmental protection and leads to the development of green technology or green computing. However, the green movement does not concentrate on body and mind balance. Therefore, a solution that is feasible for shortening the discrepancy between technology and humanity is of utmost concern.

In 1972, the King of [[Bhutan]] proposed a new concept that used [[Gross national happiness|gross national happiness]] (GNH) [7] to describe the standard of living of a country, instead of using [[gross domestic product]] (GDP). The GNH has attracted considerable attention because it measured the mental health of people. Similar ideas were also proposed in other works. For example, Andrew Oswald advocated Happiness Economics [8]{{cite news |url=http://www.nytimes.com/2005/10/04/science/04happ.html?ei=5070&en=d59b033e2491f6e2&ex=1168405200&adxnnl=1&adxnnlx=1168247655-O5Pq6uVA67iC5AdJjHgXEg&pagewanted=all |title=A New Measure of Well-Being From a Happy Little Kingdom |accessdate=2007-01-08 |work=New York Times | first=Andrew C. | last=Revkin | date=2005-10-04}} by combining economics with other research fields, such as psychology and sociology. Moreover, a book entitled “Well-Being” [9]{{citation|title=Well-being: The foundations of hedonic psychology|author1=D. Kahneman|author2=E. Diener|author3=N. Schwarz|year=1999|journal=Intensive care nursing|publisher=Russell Sage Foundation|volume=6|series=3}}, which was written by [[Daniel Kahneman]] (a [[Nobel Prize]] winner in [[Economic Sciences]] in 2002) explained the fundamentals of happy psychology. The common objective of those theories is to upgrade the living quality of humans, and to bring more happiness into our daily lives. Recently, the IEEE launched the humanitarian technology challenge (HTC) project (www.ieeehtc.org) [10] by sponsoring resource-constrained areas to build reliable electricity and medical facilities. Such an action also highlights the importance of humanistic care. Like the HTC project, Intel has supported a center for aging services technologies (CAST) (www.agingtech.org), and its objective is to accelerate development of innovative healthcare technologies. Several academic institutes responded to the trend and subsequently initiated medical care research, such as the “CodeBlue” and “Mercury” projects at Harvard University [11] and “Computers in the Human Interaction Loop” (CHIL) at Carnegie Mellon University [12]. Recent surveys on global healthcare markets and aging population also revealed the same phenomenon. In response to the world trend and inspired by those related concepts [1, 2, 6, 8-12]{{citation|title=High technology and humanity in intensive care|author=Ashworth P.|date=September, 1990|journal=Intensive care nursing|publisher=Churchill Livingstone|volume=6|series=3}}, Professor Wang created a new interdiscipline “Orange Technology” for studying and promoting health, happiness, and humanistic care{{Citation |url=http://zhncku.med.ncku.edu.tw/religion/adm/cake_adm/upload/photo/x485290520.ppt|title=Orange Technology Conference Presentation|date=November 18, 2009|publisher=NCKU|accessdate=2010-08-06}}. Orange technology and green technology complement each other well. Green technology focuses on environmental protection, whereas orange technology highlights humanism/humanitarianism. Both plug the gap generated by the opposite side.
