The process continues with Research and development work of the previously selected idea. There are two types of R&D present in the school environment: partially basic research (the aim is to gain new knowledge about basics of phenomena and relevant facts, without having in mind the specific application) and especially applied research and development activities (the purpose is to generate knowledge oriented into solving concrete problems). At this phase, the idea is developed to the prototype focused into product testing and correcting of any possible deficiencies prior to the production.
