I have an idea for an Iphone case and want to create a prototype. What adobe products do I need to do this?

    That's an engineering project. Outside the scope of Adobe's projects. A CAD app seems a possibility. However... that's really a job for the manufacturer, not a prototype designer. You could use Illustrator to give sketches/impressions/ideas without 0.1mm accuracy etc.

    It depends on what you mean by "prototype". Is your idea for the design of the physical case, or for colors/graphics/images to be applied to a pre-existing case?

    Do you want to 3D print it?

    Or is this about designing a pattern that you then upload to an online printing service.

    I want to design a physical wallet case on an interactive platform so that I can present my design to a manufacturer but I'm not sure 3D printing is an option for my design.
