KJT device benefits/contibutions for soicial environment:

Portability: These machines are light weight and can be used from hospital bed. Upon discharge from the hospital, a range of motion machine can be use at home.

Decreased Recovery Time: The constant slow motion of the machine can help reduce pain and swelling while soothing the joint. The range of motion machine will help reduce soft tissue stiffness, decrease the likelihood of developing scar tissue, promote healing of the joint's surface, and increase the circulation of blood throughout the affected joint.

Increased Range of Motion: The machine is used to maintain range of motion and the flexibility. This machine can help enhance the overall outcome of patient surgery, which supports the ability to perform daily tasks and activities that enjoy to the fullest extent. 

Green environmental: By using stainless steel material, the KJT device frame and mechanical structure were expected to constructed using high quality material. The reason why those material was used is because to prevent user or patient from any corrosion that can lead into virus and bacteria exposure.

Low cost: Most of all device that similar with KJT device were very expensive. The price range based on research is starting from RM 4,000 to RM 11,000. This device was expected to be low cost and target market is for home use and prototyping for research knee anatomy and parameters.
