Goals

Comfortability

To make our design more comfortable, we will be adding more material to the already present knee brace. We are deciding on either buying memory foam, spandex, silk, polyester or acrylic.  We may use a combination of materials to add comfort to specific areas of the knee. Comfort is a goal because our design's main function to provide relief and healing to knee pain, so being uncomfortable while wearing our product will ultimately slow down the healing process. 

Adaptability 

The variations of knee injuries go from recurrent patellar sub-laxation to an ALC tear. We want our design to be very customizable, by making it so, it can affect an array of different knee problems a person may experience. We will get this done by giving instructions with the product to instruct the user on where to place the electrodes on the product for their specific reason for the design. By having adaptability, we open a larger range of people to use our product. In doing so we are helping people recover from their problem in an accessible way.
