Proposta de desenvolvimento de roupa de proteção para montaria em touro

Abstract

Developing a product means understanding the needs of the market and, from detailed studies and modeling, manufacturing a product or offering a service that will meet the needs of customers. Knowing that rodeo is a radical sport and of great risk of injuries and even deaths, the case study aimed to elaborate a proposal for the development of a protective clothing for bull riding based on the reference model of Rozenfeld et al. (2006), aiming to improve the quality of those that already exist, thus bringing greater comfort, practicality, quality, flexibility and safety to the realization of these mounts. Using rozenfeld's reference model it was possible to develop a long sleeve vest, which met the requested requirements. During the product evaluation stage, the sketch was presented informally to two pedestrians and showed positive results in relation to the proposal to develop a long-sleeved vest, which will be used as protective clothing for the mount.
