appropriate extraction

Question 3

development of designs from prototype to mass

Answer 3

prototype is starting point for future productions- first generation
car industry
visual prototypes from traditional moulding materials or 3D printed
visual prototypes provide an opportunity to rear the visual imbalance that a product form may have and enable to suggest improvements

proof of concept prototypes- key functionality and main technical aspects, not look like but functions, use existing off the shelf components, allows to test

production prototype- representation of how the mass produced product would look and shows how it would function
off shelf parts still used
bespoke parts more likely
close to production grade
assess alterations for mass production a
