Exploring Prototyping Tools for Interactive Fashion Design
… explore on clothing. While there exist physical tools to implement interactive garments and software tools to create the visual aesthetic of a garment, these tools cannot yet enable designers to use new eFashion technologies in their garments because they require engineering expertise and …

Active prototyping : a computational framework for designing while making
… the wake of an increased accessibility of rapid prototyping tools in design education and practice, designers still face a series of challenges related to their use, one of them being the way in which they use these machines to actively explore and enhance their ideas. At the same time, the …

A study in digital prototyping and multidisciplinary design team collaboration
… of the relative usefulness of digital prototyping tools employed in the development of the design projects, and (2) reviewed the design literature while focusing on areas related to a computer-aided product realization course curriculum, namely: reflective practice in design, design …

Rapid prototyping of rapid prototyping machines
Rapid prototyping tools empower individuals to create almost anything. Unfortunately, these tools are still far too expensive for personal ownership. The do-it-yourself community has responded with a slew of home-made rapid prototyping machines, but development times are slow because of the …

IDEAL: a tool to enable usability specification and evaluation
While interactive design tools, rapid prototyping tools, and user interface management systems (UIMSs) are advancing as cost-effective ways of producing interfaces, attention to usability is rarely incorporated into such tools. The advancement of producing interfaces more rapidly without addressing …

Optimización algorítmica orientada a la implementación en dispositivos reconfigurables de esquemas multiestándar y multiusuario para sincronismo de frecuencia en sistemas de comunicaciones inalámbricas basados en OFDM
… (FPGAs). Therefore, methodologies based on rapid prototyping tools that reduce the time and effort required to implement a DSP system are also analyzed and compared. First, the effects of a carrier frequency offset (CFO) are studied and shown. This CFO reduces the performance of the system. …

Exploring Electronic Storyboards as Interdisciplinary Design Tools for Pervasive Computing
… should be involved in their design and what tools and processes should they follow? We address these issues by advocating for interdisciplinary design of pervasive computing systems. Based upon our experiences teaching courses in interactive architecture, product design, physical computing …

Modeling and Experimental Techniques to Demonstrate Nanomanipulation With Optical Tweezers
… is currently impeded by the absence of effective prototyping tools at the nanoscale. Optical trapping is well established for flexible three-dimensional manipulation of components at the microscale. However, it has so far not been demonstrated to confine nanoparticles, for long enough time to be …

Simulation and optimisation of the Interior High Pressure (IHP) manufacturing process using the Finite Element Method (FEA)
… techniques can help to achieve this goal. Prototyping tools for the Interior High Pressure (IHP) forming technique are relatively expensive in comparison to conventional sheet metal forming. Prototyping using the trial and error approach (“Real Prototyping”) is time consuming, and hence …
