The video shows how to go from concept to actual product through these three methods—Sketching & Paper Prototyping: Rapidly create prototypes by hand drawing or printing

Sketching and paper prototypes are an indispensable first step in the design process. They can quickly promote project development in a simple way and lay the foundation for subsequent digital and native prototypes. This approach emphasizes "speed first" and the core is to capture the design concept and quickly verify the initial idea

Making paper prototypes only requires paper and pen, is extremely low-cost and does not require complex tools. Designers can quickly generate multiple design options for comparison

Many of her designs draw directly from her multicultural background, such as the intricate patterns and use of color found in Asian design aesthetics. By incorporating global cultural symbols, her work is more diverse and inclusive

Modifications are simple, and designers can adjust or add new functional modules on paper at any time

Hand-drawn sketches can present the design structure in its simplest form, making it easier for team members to understand the design concept

In the early stages of a project, sketches can facilitate team discussions and quickly gather feedback

The video shows how to go from concept to actual product through these three methods—Digital Prototyping: Use design tools to create more detailed interactive prototypes and simulate the functions and layout of the interface

Digital prototyping is an important link in the design process, finding a balance between visual representation and interactive testing. Compared with paper prototypes, digital prototypes can present design ideas more accurately, helping teams quickly identify problems and optimize user experience

Digital prototypes provide a more refined visual representation than paper prototypes and can show details such as interface layout, color, and fonts, making the design closer to the actual effect

Designers can use tools to add dynamic effects to simulate real user experience

Digital prototypes can be easily shared with team members and users, making them suitable for remote collaboration and testing. At the same time, it can record user feedback in real time to help optimize the design

With tools, designers can quickly adjust and update designs, eliminating time spent redrawing

The video shows how to go from concept to actual product through these three methods—Native Prototyping: A high-fidelity prototype that runs on an actual device, usually made using real code or frameworks, and is close to the final product

Native prototype is the final stage of product design, pursuing high fidelity and technical feasibility verification. It can present a complete user experience, ensure that the design has been fully verified before development, and reduce the cost of later changes

The native prototype not only looks close to the final product, but also has complete interactive functions and dynamic effects, which can truly simulate the user experience

Designers and development teams can test on the target device to ensure functionality and performance in a real-world environment

By using real code, the team can discover difficulties and potential problems in technical implementation in advance, paving the way for subsequent development work

Native prototypes are suitable for showing to customers, investors, or decision-makers because they are closer to finished products and can convey the value of the design more convincingly

The guide distinguishes between low-fidelity prototypes, which are inexpensive and ideal for quick testing, and high-fidelity prototypes, which closely resemble the final product with detailed visuals and interactions

The guide outlines various methods such as paper prototypes, linked wireframes, and digital prototypes. Each method is explained with its purpose, advantages, and limitations, making it practical for real-world applications

Prototyping is presented as an iterative process, enabling designers to refine ideas and resolve usability issues effectively through continuous feedback, especially during user testing

The guide demonstrates how prototyping contributes to every stage of product design, from early brainstorming to presenting high-fidelity designs to stakeholders, emphasizing its significance throughout the product development lifecycle
