Take some time to reflect on what you have read about design thinking and prototyping.
Out of the five phases of design thinking, you already walked through three of them during the idea development stage. Revisit the phases using the following questions:
Is the way you described your audience in the idea development stage still accurate? If you have gotten new information on your audience you may want to tweak your ideas where needed.
Look back at the goal you set in the idea development stage. Now think of the problem(s) your audience/users face. Does your goal match the problem? If needed, refine your goals.
At the end of the idea development stage you pitched your AR experience concept. What feedback did you receive from your peers? Try to incorporate the tips and feedback that you received to make your concept stronger.
This is a new phase which you haven’t focused on yet. After reading the resource on ‘methods of prototyping’, which method do you feel best suits AR? Will you develop a digital prototype or will you create an analog prototype? In the production phase you will find guides on how to use Spark AR Studio, which you can use to create digital prototype.
If you have created a digital prototype, this is the time to test, fine-tune, and ask others to test it as well. Use all the feedback you receive to improve your prototype in preparation for the production phase.
Finally, consider what steps you need to take in your project to make sure that you conclude the pre-production stage successfully and are ready for the production stage.
