Part H.) Prototype Testing and Data Collection Plan
1.) Testing Research-
If any research is done when testing the "Tangling" of headphones it is not very well documented. The few tests we found include, dropping cable from varying heights in order to measure the affects of the headphones freedom to move, which is simulated while falling. These studies show that shorter cables and less freedom to move result in a less tangled cord.

2.) Prototype Testing Plan-
We plan to test our peers in categories of speed, difficulty, and convenience. The student will try to wrap and unwrap the headphones using our new design featuring magnets. We will time the students, and also ask for their feedback of the product, and any recommendations they might have at the time. We will also try to compare our strategies for untangling with others. We will offer the student a few options as well as our design. They will test all the options and provide us with feedback of difficulty and ranking of personal favorite.

3.) Market Testing-
Our product is not in mass production yet, therefore we cant continue with any market testing at this time.
