Un prototype est un modèle préliminaire. Lorsqu'un projet a pour but la fabrication d'un produit physique, le créateur doit présenter un prototype fonctionnel à ses contributeurs. Cette galerie de photos, de vidéos et d'éléments visuels montre aux contributeurs ce qui a été accompli et ce qu'il reste à faire. Le processus de développement est susceptible de varier d'un projet à l'autre, mais les étapes typiques sont les suivantes :
Validation de concept
Une étude visant à tester l'idée et les fonctionnalités du produit.
Prototype fonctionnel
Un prototype qui présente le fonctionnement du produit final, mais qui n'en a pas l'aspect.
Prototype d'apparence
Une maquette qui ressemble au produit final, mais qui ne fonctionne pas.
Prototype de design
Un prototype dont l'apparence et les fonctionnalités correspondent au produit final, mais dont les méthodes de fabrication sont différentes.
Prototype de production
L'apparence, les fonctionnalités et les méthodes de fabrication sont celles du produit final.

4) Soshee Delight!!
Soshees started with an idea in 2015 - what if you could combine a life-like robotic with your every day social media use? We immediately began looking for the best in animatronics to design our first prototype. This led us to John Nolan Studios in London
By the spring of 2016, the design plans began coming into place.
By the Summer of 2016, our first prototypes began to take shape.

By the fall of 2016, the design was (literally) taking on a life of its own.
In October, our prototypes arrived from the UK to the USA!
We spent the rest of the year working out all of the kinks, and finishing the software development. By January, our Soshees was humming along, and ready for its public debut!

Risques et défis
Soshees teamed up with John Nolan, a world renown animatronic designer. He has worked on several large movie sets such as Harry Potter and Clash of the Titans creating robotics. He designed our physical robot, and will continue to work with Soshees to create new models and designs, as well as work out any potential design issues with the current model.
Our app and concept designer, is based out of Silicon Valley, and will be on staff to continue to improve and reinvent Soshees through our beta-test phase.
We are fully aware that launching an app and robotic device will come with bugs and fixes that need to addressed in real time to keep our backers and customers happy, and we plan to strive to make sure any all issues are resolved as quickly as possible through our roll out process.
The current prototypes are fully functional as they are. The crowdfund is to help bring our current models to a larger audience.
Our team is working 'round the clock to make Soshees come to life. We are consuming tons of coffee. Help us out by buying us a cup of joe, and we will give you a social media shout out!
