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.
