Orientated experiments

Activities

• Activity 2: Determining functions and their structures

Necessary tools

• All possible tools necessary for the experiment

Description

With preliminary tests, basic product functionality can be secured and an overview of product properties can be provided be won. Such tests are carried out, for example, as part of a property analysis, mainly in the early phases of development.

Procedure

1. In preparation for the orientation experiment, the system to be tested must be reduced to essential elements and simple operating principles
2. A basic device for carrying out the experiment must be created
3. After the experiment has been carried out, the results are evaluated and documented. The documentation also contains a description of the experimental setup
