“…Another important milestone came in 2009, at the 8th Berlin Workshop Human-Machine-Systems BWMMS'09, whereby a hybrid is created between a mechatronic prototype and a VR image for the purpose of evaluating functional characteristics of a product. The combination of physical and virtual parts was called smart hybrid prototyping (SHP) [25,28,40]. In this experiment, it was possible to interact with a physical product in a virtual environment.…”

The manufacture of prototypes is costly in economic and temporal terms and in order to carry this out it is necessary to accept certain deviations with respect to the final finishes. This article proposes haptic hybrid prototyping, a haptic-visual product prototyping method created to help product design teams evaluate and select semantic information conveyed between product and user through texturing and ribs of a product in early stages of conceptualization. For the evaluation of this tool, an experiment was realized in which the haptic experience was compared during the interaction with final products and through the HHP. As a result, it was observed that the answers of the interviewees coincided in both situations in 81% of the cases. It was concluded that the HHP enables us to know the semantic information transmitted through haptic-visual means between product and user as well as being able to quantify the clarity with which this information is transmitted. Therefore, this new tool makes it possible to reduce the manufacturing lead time of prototypes as well as the conceptualization phase of the product, providing information on the future success of the product in the market and its economic return.
