What is the difference between product design and industrial design?

Product design is the process of creating products that are functional and aesthetically pleasing, while industrial design is a broader field that involves designing products, systems, and environments at a larger scale. Product design is focused on creating the form and function of individual products, while industrial design encompasses the entire design process for a variety of products, from concept development to mass production. Industrial designers often work on projects that involve designing products, packaging, branding, and digital interfaces, while product designers typically focus on the physical design of a product.
