| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, the authors proposed a product useful for lightening a mental and physical burden of child care. We verified the validity by baby's physiological responses (an electrocardiogram).
In the first year, accuracy of measuring instruments was improved through running an experiment on an electrocardiogram and that indicated a stress index. This improvement can be used to measure the baby's heartbeat by same precision as an adult. In the next year, the product that is useful for supporting child care (a swinging crib) will be proposed and produced. In the final year of this research work, the validity of proposed product will be verified by the baby's physiological responses (an electrocardiogram).
