prototypinga
Prototypinga is a design and development approach that emphasizes the rapid creation and evaluation of multiple prototypes to explore a product's requirements, usability, and feasibility. The term combines the core practice of prototyping with a deliberate emphasis on iteration and learning.
In practice, prototypinga proceeds through short cycles of build, test, and assess. Teams generate several low-
Techniques employed include rapid paper or digital mockups, 3D-printed parts, interactive software simulations, and service blueprints.
Applications span hardware and software products, consumer devices, and service design projects. The approach is common
Advantages of prototypinga include clearer requirements, improved stakeholder alignment, faster learning, and risk reduction by failing
Limitations include potential overemphasis on appearance over underlying systems, resource intensity, and the possibility of scope
Origin and terminology of prototypinga are not widely standardized; the concept has appeared in contemporary design
