A pedestrian environment provides improved walking conditions and facilities for most pedestrians. However, the walking conditions for women with strollers are poor. The purpose of this study was to provide information on the walking environment planning for women with strollers in an urban housing area through analyse of walking characteristics, patterns of going out, and the psychology of them. This study surveyed 208 women who pushed a baby n a stroller in Gyeongsan. The analysis consisted of calculation of the frequencies, the mean, t-test, and ${\chi}^2$ test. The survey results revealed that, first, the women had their own favorite places in the housing area, and usually went out during the afternoon as various aims. When they went out, they felt stress both psychologically and physically, and they thought that they were weak at walking. Second, the safety and the convenience factors of walking environment were important conditions that make the women to go out often. Third, the environment that have not the accessibility, the amenity, and the diversity also restricted the women from going out with the stroller. As a result, they did mot use the stroller and tended to use their cars to go out. However, when the diversity of the environment is added to walking environment, women invreased their social interactions.

In this paper, the automatic control system of the stroller brake was designed and manufactured to reduce the safety accident of the stroller. The ultrasonic sensors are used to determine whether the handle of the driver's hand is touching or not, and the gyro sensor is designed to detect the current tilt of the baby carriage. If the next driver's hand is not recognized and the tilt exceeds a certain angle, the servo motor is activated and the hydraulic brake is operated to prevent the accident on the downhill road. Finally, in this paper, a smart phone-based application was developed to make the remote control of the brake possible.

The purpose of this study is to figure out the stroller for baby with physical disability and to suggest improvement by using the usability test. Usability evaluation is separated by the user and the expert evaluation was conducted. Strollers for disabled users to analyze the evaluation of this experience using a guardian of a child with a disability was conducted targeting 30 people. The function and structure of the stroller easy to evaluate whether the five-point scale. Professional 10 strollers for disabled users with the problems of the design and structure were looking to make a suggestion. In this study, to obtain foreign products and differentiation, functionality, and ease of analyzing the conditions of satisfaction and competitiveness of domestic products will be able to contribute.
