PROTOTYPE PROJECT BRIEF Prepared with the Make It Physical template — https://makeitphysical.com/prototype-brief 1. Product and intended user: [What are you making, who will use it, and why?] 2. Essential functions: [List the 1–3 things the first prototype must demonstrate.] 3. Starting point: [Written idea / AI image / sketch / CAD / PCB files / existing prototype. List available files and revisions. Identify drafts.] 4. Size, materials and mechanical requirements: [Approximate dimensions, mounting, movement, mating parts and environment. Write "unknown" where undecided.] 5. Electronics and software: [Power, sensors, controls, display, connectivity, existing modules. Who provides firmware? Write "not applicable" if purely mechanical.] 6. Prototype goal and passing checks: [Appearance model / functional prototype / both. Describe how you will evaluate the result.] 7. Quantity, budget, timing and delivery: [Quantity; budget and currency; target date; destination country. Separate firm constraints from preferences.] 8. Assumptions, open questions and confidentiality: [List unverified AI suggestions and decisions still needed. State whether an NDA is requested before detailed files are shared.] Next step: review this brief, then submit your inquiry at https://makeitphysical.com/start Your inquiry is not a quote or an order.
