Saskatchewan Polytechnic
$25,000.00
Moving a rapid prototyping tool to commercialization
FY 2015-16
Summary
Experience First Design Inc. (EFDI) is a small technology commercialization and technology development
consultancy located in Saskatchewan, Canada. The company has a successful history of mobile and game
development. Through this process of application and game development they have created a tool for internal
use that allows for the rapid prototyping of gameplay experiences. They see a strong commercial demand for
this type of tool provided they can improve the design of the tool to make it commercially viable. The vast
number of interaction methods currently available within this tool will require the application to make use of
the latest user-interface (UX) and human computer interaction (HCI) techniques. EFDI is seeking partnership
with the Digital Integration Research Group (DIReG) of Saskatchewan Polytechnic to access the UX and HCI
expertise required to move this tool into a viable product that can provide a new and unique product stream for
EFDI.
