  • The core idea has been clearly established, including the product’s purpose, target user, and overall vision of what the product could be like. The problem to be solved and intended direction have been defined, forming a solid foundation for development and further translation into a clear visual format

  • The concept has been translated into early visual form through sketches or simple renderings. Core ideas, functionality, and design direction have been explored and clarified, establishing a clear visual pathway forward to create a proof of concept model.

  • A physical and functional proof of concept has been built to validate feasibility, core mechanics, and user interaction. Key assumptions have been tested, providing tangible evidence that the concept works in practice and further design and development would be worthwhile before progressing to a refined prototype.

  • A fully functional prototype has been developed to demonstrate the product's intended performance, usability, and user experience. At this stage, the design has been refined through testing and iteration, making it suitable for final validation before manufacturing or market launch.

  • The product has been fully engineered and optimised for production. Materials, tolerances, assembly methods, and manufacturing processes have been defined, ensuring readiness for scalable manufacturing.

  • The product has entered batch or full-scale manufacturing and is now commercially available. Production, quality control, and packaging systems are fully in place, enabling consistent delivery to the market. A V2.0 model may have been considered with improvements or new features.
