When making a product, most go through several processes to gain an effective product. There are several design processes that can be involved in making a product, four of these are prototyping, market research, open source and reverse engineering.
This essay will focus on both market research and prototying, and look at examples of good applications of these, and not so suitable applications.
Firstly, market research involves gathering information about a product market or customers within that product market. It is an essential part of many companies business strategy, as the process finds out what people want to buy, and furthermore how they feel about what they buy, through methods such as surveys and questionnaires.
Prototyping in the design process of a product involves creating several 'drafts', unfinished versions of a product, a prototype is a basic model which envisions the final target appearance and operation of a finished product. It is used widely across businesses, for both general products and also in software production.
