MODULE-1
Industrial Design (ID) is the professional practice of designing products, devices, objects, services and typically focus on the physical appearance, functionality and manufacturability of a product. During this process, myriad decisions are made by an industrial designer (and their team) that are aimed at improving your life through well-executed design.

WHAT IS PRODUCT DESIGN
Product design describes the process of imagining, creating, and iterating products that solve users’ problems or address specific needs in a given market. The key to successful product design is an understanding of the end-user customer, the person for whom the product is being created. Product designers attempt to solve real problems for real people by using both empathy and knowledge of their prospective customers’ habits, behaviors, frustrations, needs, and wants.
WHY PRODUCT DESIGN
Product design is an integral part of the product development cycle. Designing a new product requires analytical, process and problem-solving skills. The goal of designing any product has to be to make it easier to get things done for its users. It allows you to be efficient, transparent and focused on creating the best product possible. At Little Green Software, we use a design process to help make sure we don't miss a step or a part of the user experience you might miss otherwise
Industrial Product Design
Industrial Product design is the single most important activity in the mechanical industries. Success or failure of a company has it roots in product design, whether it is done in-house or contracted out. It is here that manufacturing costs and profits are determined. Even the best of manufacturing facilities are of little use if the design of a product is inherently faulty.
Designers of machinery are individuals who use their talents to solve user-product problems on an on-going basis. They typically spend most of their time and effort on questions of applications and functions, usually within diminishing space requirements. That is, the designer must constantly seek to satisfy the customer's desires with respect to adaptability to the environment and will always seek to reduce the size limitations.
Individuals who have an engineering degree, an associate degree, or who have completed an in-house apprenticeship in drafting and design usually design machines. Machine design is a team effort requiring a variety of talents. Some designers are quite inventive and many hold patents; others, usually engineers, have more analytical minds. A third category of designer is artistically inclined and skilled in adding form, shape, style, and esthetics to machinery. Machine design is an art as much as a science.
Creative designers, who bring machine elements together in new combinations, are able to assemble in their minds new mechanisms that as yet do not exist. They design and redesign their machines as they walk or drive and see them in height, breadth, and depth as real objects, and they can also see them and even hear them in action.
