If you are seeking to move your product to the next level, a professional firm having experience and expertise in the art of prototyping is essential for you to make the right moves. It's Your Move™. . .

The benefits of a top-quality prototype are numerous and the value of a professionally prepared prototype simply can not be over-emphasized. If a patent has not yet been secured, a prototype is valuable to demonstrate the extent of your innovation to a patent agent, attorney, or investor. If a patent has already been secured, an appropriate prototype may provide the excitement needed to woo a manufacturer and licensing partner. The old saying is still true: “You only have one chance to make a first impression”.

The services provided by The Harshaw Research Group are tailored to the specific needs of each client. There is no cookie-cutter procedure forced upon any client. For example, an Alpha Prototype may be needed to demonstrate the form of an invention or to provide a scaled down model of large and complex machinery. A Beta, Presentation, or Fully-Functional Prototype may be needed to demonstrate form, fit, and function. We can verify that a prototype accurately reflects the scope of a patent’s claims if the prototype is to be used in marketing and commercialization to licensing targets. A Phototype® or product Animation offers very exciting photorealistic visual options.
