Test the Risky Part First
Many interactive ideas depend on one uncertain element: a sensor that must work outdoors, a crowd that must understand a gesture or a device that must run smoothly. Testing that part early prevents costly surprises.
What a Prototype Can Answer
A prototype is not a finished product. It answers a specific question cheaply. We often start larger installation projects this way.
- Does the sensor work — in the real space and lighting
- Do people understand it — without instructions
- Is it fast enough — on the chosen hardware
- Does it look right — at the real size and distance
- What will it cost — a better basis for the full quote

Keep It Focused
Resist adding extra features to a prototype. A small test with a clear question gives clearer answers and keeps the cost sensible.
Use the Result
Share what you learn with the whole team. A short trial can reshape the brief or save a doomed idea. Agencies pitching ideas to clients can use a prototype through our partnership programme.
