|
We further develop the concept by creating a detailed CAD database of all parts and assemblies while finalizing issues relating to ergonomics, product use and aesthetics. We use this information to create initial engineering specifications and build a proof-of-concept prototype that can be tested and analyzed for integrity and reliability.

Phase Three activities may include:
|
|
- Refining the concept in 3D CAD software
- Conducting ergonomic study
- Issuing first engineering specifications
- Conducting engineering analysis
- Estimating tool and part cost
- Creating a proof-of-concept prototype
- Creating an appearance model of final concept
- Conducting a color study
