Abstract

This paragraph must contain a maximum of 200 words, it performs an objective representation of the paper, its purpose is to help the reader to understand the material presented. It covers all the critical points of the text and presents the essence in chronological order of the writing. Since a description of a research paper is being made, the abstract should describe a general and coherent overview of the scientific paper. It is important to remember that this is the first impression that the editors and readers will have of our work, therefore, fundamental information should be presented, clearly structured and synthesizing the main sections of the paper. In other words, the abstract should not exhaustively present the different sections; it is only a way to select the most relevant aspects of each one. Finally, it is recommended to take special care in the use of a light language and in third person, avoiding abbreviations; and if necessary, these should be defined the first time they appear in the text.

Author Biographies

  • Andy Tipan-Martinez, Pontificia Universidad Católica del Ecuador - Sede Ambato

    As an industrial design engineer, during my training I acquired a solid foundation in product design and development through prototyping, teamwork, and 3D modeling, understanding that simplicity and knowledge of materials are key to mass production. I strengthened my research skills to validate functionality and market viability. In addition, I worked with wood, metal, and plastic and incorporated basic knowledge of electronics and programming, which I will continue to refine.

  • Estefano Alulema-Ortiz, Pontificia Universidad Católica del Ecuador, Ambato, Ecuador.

    Industrial Design Engineer with experience in product development, 3D modeling, and prototyping in wood, metal, and plastic. I specialize in design for mass production, market validation, and the integration of knowledge in electronics and programming.

  • Alejandro Lopez-Llanos, Pontificia Universidad Católica del Ecuador, Ambato, Ecuador.

    Industrial Design Engineer with experience in product development, 3D modeling, and prototyping in wood, metal, and plastic. I specialize in design for mass production, market validation, and the integration of knowledge in electronics and programming. I currently work as an Industrial Designer at the private company ECUAMATRIZ.
