Course overview

Some great inventions arrive fully formed in their creator’s imagination. But for most designs, every seemingly perfect idea needs testing and improving, time and again. It just takes 1 user to spot a crucial flaw or weakness in a great idea.  

To save time, money, and reputation, the top designers make extensive use of prototypes. From pencil sketches through to functioning models, prototypes give test participants the chance for realistic interaction with the general concept and its finer details. The feedback they get from them will help them test, adapt, and optimize the final design.
