Prototype and its purpose

Image
A prototype is an operating version of a solution. Often a designer makes a prototype with different materials than the final version, and generally it is not as polished. Prototypes are a key step in the development of a final solution, allowing the designer to test how the solution will work and even show the solution to users for feedback. A prototype can be defined as a simulation or sample version of a final product that helps testing the product and make necessary or desired changes in the product prior to its mass manufacturing and launch. A prototype can also be termed as an operating version of a product that helps in creating and improving product design and is made with different materials to develop the structure, function and appearance of product. Product prototypes are a crucial part of the design process and are used to evaluate a new design to improve the accuracy of product by architects,   engineers, industrial designers and service designers
