Abstract
An interactive consumer preference based product development system wherein a design feature is translated into a logical functional model language that is downloaded into consumer marketing platforms. Consumer preference data is gathered from the marketing platforms and used to quantify consumer preferences and drive product specifications.
Claims10
An interactive, consumer preference-based method of product development comprising:
