A company decides they want to create a product to solve the problem of making iced coffee efficiently without ruining it. They design a product by taking these steps:
1. Observing coffee-drinkers and talking to people who drink coffee in focus groups and interviews to find out what their coffee-drinking habits and needs are.
2. Compiling reports based on their observations/interviews, creating personas for their users, and identifying the main pain points in their users coffee routines.
3. Brainstorming as a team to come up with an initial system of concepts to solve the problem, using the insights from step 2.
4. Creating a prototype device that makes iced coffee (implementing the design from step 3).
5. Testing the prototype by distributing it to (and gathering feedback from) their users in focus groups. After gathering feedback, they compile the usability problems they found, update their reports/personas, and repeat steps 3, 4 and 5. What has this company demonstrated in this scenario?
