| For both the inital thinking about the product, as well as the final demonstration, I recommend doing something called //storyboarding//, which is the process of describing and visualizing interface scenarios between the user and the product. I am not sure if the hits will be the best, but here is a [[https://www.google.com/search?biw=1188&bih=1234&tbm=isch&sa=1&ei=qGgjWp6qBOSFggeWqJ6YBA&q=storyboarding+industrial+design&oq=storyboarding+industrial+design&gs_l=psy-ab.3...19589.21502.0.22061.18.17.0.0.0.0.147.1475.12j5.17.0....0...1c.1.64.psy-ab..1.3.279...0j0i67k1j0i10k1j0i24k1.0.6yUf1tPjUCg | google search]] for the topic (try clicking on the "engineering" option since we are engineers). | For both the inital thinking about the product, as well as the final demonstration, I recommend doing something called //storyboarding//, which is the process of describing and visualizing interface scenarios between the user and the product.

| As engineers, we should be somewhat familiar with this. In Physics classes we learn about //[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thought_experiment| gedankenexperiments]]//, otherwise translated as //thought-experiments//. Here physical scenarios are specified and imagined. Applying the laws of physics to these scenarios leads to hypothesized outcomes in order to reason through a particular concept. The design process should involve something similar. Storyboarding is a way to force the designer to think about the user interaction and the designed item more thoroughly, from the beginning to the end of the interaction. If multiple pathways are possible, then they should be outlined. | As engineers, we should be somewhat familiar with this.
