Comparative analysis between the industrial design product development methodologies (MPDI) together with an analysis of the scientific method (MC-14), an analysis based on Artificial Intelligence and Open Source programming (Python) of flowcharts (ISO 5807: 1985)

Abstract

The five (5) stages of Design Thinking are analyzed, whose steps are: (1) empathize, (2) define, (3) ideate, (4) prototype and (5) test. Although it is to be assumed that in the development of the project, the development and design stages that every professional Industrial Designer and S&T Researcher must follow have been considered: First: it is assumed that the industrial designer followed a "scientific method" of technological development (R+D+i) consisting of the following steps: (1) observation, (2) hypothesis, (3) experimentation, (4) measurement, (5) falsifiability, (6) reproducibility and repeatability (7) peer review, and (8) publication. In the contrast with (8) publication and its publication stages, the similarities and differences appear. Second: Usually, in the (8) publication stage, the content of a scientific article for a journal will generally consist of the following headings (items): (a) title, (b) abstract, (c) introduction, (d) materials and methodology, (e) results and discussion, (f) conclusion, (g) acknowledgments and (h) references. There is some flexibility in the labeling of these components, but they should be clearly identifiable and roughly in that order. Third: Stages (1), (2), (3) and (4) of Design Thinking, mentioned above, make up items (d) materials and work methodology. Stage (5) of Design Thinking corresponds to item (e) results and discussion of the publication. Fourth: So the scheme would be formed as follows: (D) Materials and work methodology: (1) Stage to empathize with users/clients (1) observation (2) Definition stage (3) Innovation ideation stage (2) design hypothesis (4) Prototype manufacturing stage (E) Results and discussion: (5) Trial or testing stage (3) experimentation and (4) measurement Conclusions (5) falsifiability of the design hypotheses. If there are no design corrections, we proceed to (6) reproducibility (by other pairs of designers and engineers of the industrial manufacturing method of the product by means of plans and technical documentary material) and repeatability (or serial industrial production on an industrial scale of the manufacturing process). Industrial Design) (7) peer review (only affects the publication of the paper or article of the academic or scientific journal).
