Prototypivaiheet
Prototypivaiheet refers to a sequence of prototyping stages used in product development and design to create and evaluate representations of a product or system. The term is used in Finnish design and technology contexts and reflects the iterative nature of prototyping, moving from simple to more refined representations as understanding grows.
In practice, prototypivaiheet guide teams through a staged approach: ideation and low-fidelity prototypes to explore concepts
Benefits include reduced risk, clearer requirements, faster feedback, and better alignment among team members and stakeholders.
Applications span software, hardware, service design, and cross-disciplinary product development, where iterative validation is valued. While
