Prototyping Process inHCI
• 1. Identify user needs
• 2. Create prototype (low/high-fidelity)
• 3. Test with users
• 4. Gather feedback and refine
• 5. Repeat until final design is achieved

Benefits of Prototypingin HCI
• • Helps identify usability issues early
• • Saves development time and cost
• • Improves user experience through iterative
design
• • Encourages collaboration between designers
and users
