Conceptual Prototyping

Conceptual prototyping is the process of creating an early, simplified version of an idea or system to explore how it might work and to gather feedback. Instead of building a final product, it focuses on visualizing concepts, functionalities, or workflows through sketches, diagrams, or basic models. This helps designers and stakeholders understand potential solutions, identify issues, and make informed decisions before investing time and resources into full development. Think of it as a "blueprint" that clarifies and refines ideas early in the design process.
