抄録

The purpose of this research was to solve the problems in the use of the baby stroller. The approach was conducted by thinking about the material and the frame shape. The first stage of the research was to carry out a questionnaire to identify the problems in the use of the baby stroller. Then, a baby stroller designed as a sling using three dimensional knitting and a stroller flame was produced. Finally, a road test with the baby stroller was carried out. The following results were obtained: (1) The baby’s body was sufficiently supported by the knitting; (2) The baby’s body vibration was greatly reduced with the new design of the baby stroller.
