Abstract
The overall goal of the design process is to create products of good usability. A human-centered design process is characterized by a continuous involvement of the prospective user of the product. This also comprises user-based concept assessments and design optimizations. For this purpose in many cases it is necessary that the user is given the possibility to perceive the product emotionally. Thus the flexibility of digital mock-ups well established in digital engineering can't be used. Instead, physical prototypes are often indispensible. In this paper a Hybrid Mock-Up approach is presented that allows a physical interaction with virtual prototypes. The behavior of the product is simulated digitally whereas elements of the human-machine interface are emulated using a generic haptic device. The benefit of the approach is that for the user a realistic product perception is achieved without having to dispense with the advantages digital engineering offers: saving of costs and time due to a reduction of physical prototypes. The approach is illustrated in a case study of a crank driven car jack.
