Prototype
Is an early sample or model built to test a concept or process or to act as a thing to be replicated or learned from. -Wikipedia

Prototypes allows stakeholders to:

• interact with an envisioned product
• gain experience in realistic setting
• explore imagined uses

Stakeholders is a person, group, organization, or system who affects or can be affected by an organization's actions. -Wikipedia

Prototypes allows us to test an idea, it can also help us when discussing with stakeholders to envisioned our ideas product and it also helps us in a lot of ways such as communication to allow us to discuss and improve the design of a product.

Low-Fidelity Prototyping (cardboard, paper and others)

• Doesn’t look like final product
• Materials uses is different from the final product
• More simple, cheaper and faster to be produced.
• Use for exploration only

Low-Fidelity Prototyping consist of :

• Storyboard
• Sketching
• Prototyping with index card
• Wizard of Oz (uses a software-based prototype)

High-Fiedelity Prototyping - Look almost the same as the final product and uses the material that is suppose to be in the final product.

The higher the number the better they have improved the software. By collecting data they can remove bugs or error that occurs in an application.

Type of Data Gathering

• Interviews
• Questionnaires
• Focus Group
• Direct Observation
• Indirect Observation
• Researching Similar Products
• Studying Documentation

Data analysis, interpretatiom and presentation technique :
