Physical and Virtual Prototyping
The Purpose of Prototyping
Validation: Ensures the design meets user needs and functional requirements.
Iteration: Allows designers to refine and improve the product through feedback.
Communication: Serves as a tangible or visual representation to convey ideas to stakeholders.
Risk Reduction: Identifies potential issues early in the development process.
Physical Prototyping
Definition
Physical Prototype
A tangible, real-world model of a product, built using physical materials.
Used to test form, ergonomics, weight, scale, and real-world interaction.
Allow hands-on testing by users and stakeholders - tactile feedback.
Useful in evaluating fit, movement, or assembly of parts.
Often used in later design stages or when user interaction is critical.

Introduction to Prototyping
Prototyping is a crucial step in the design process that allows designers to create preliminary models of their products. These models can be either physical or virtual, and they serve multiple purposes throughout the development cycle.
Prototyping helps in visualizing ideas, testing concepts, and gathering feedback.
It bridges the gap between conceptual design and final production.
AnalogyThink of prototyping as creating a rough draft of an essay before writing the final version. It allows you to see what works, what doesn't, and make improvements before committing to the final product.
DefinitionPrototypingThe process of creating preliminary models of a product to test and validate design concepts.
