A prototype is a preliminary model of something. Projects that offer physical products need to show backers documentation of a working prototype. This gallery features photos, videos, and other visual documentation that will give backers a sense of what’s been accomplished so far and what’s left to do. Though the development process can vary for each project, these are the stages we typically see:
Proof of Concept
Explorations that test ideas and functionality.
Functional Prototype
Demonstrates the functionality of the final product, but looks different.
Appearance Prototype
Looks like the final product, but is not functional.
Design Prototype
Appearance and function match the final product, but is made with different manufacturing methods.
Production Prototype
Appearance, function, and manufacturing methods match the final product.

These photos and videos provide a detailed look at this project’s development.
We created the Fidgi Pen originally to relieve the stress of work and school. The more research we did, the more we understood how prevalent fidgeting was in the world. We also realized this product would benefit those who have ADD, ADHD and autism by helping them channel their fidgeting into a useful and discrete toy.
We have put together a project that we know will promote good in the world and we are so excited to share it with you! The Fidgi Pen has a Patent Pending with its one of a kind unique design.
The Fidgi Pen is the most discrete fidget toy out there. One of a kind in design and original by nature. The functionality of a pen mixed with the features of a fidget toy make Fidgi Pen the hottest item on the market.

Are you stressed at work or bored at school? The Fidgi Pen allows you to channel your focus and stay on task. It will relieve that stress from work and help you make it through class. Meanwhile, no one around you will even know you are fidgeting.
Can fidgeting help YOU? Of course fidgeting can help you! But don't only take this from us, let's look at the cold hard facts. Many people have used other things to fidget with and we believe that if you have a more discrete fidget toy that you will be able to fidget more without distracting others.
