dc.description.abstract | Cribs are the most significant cause of injury and death in infants with an average of 35 deaths and an additional 12,000 hospitalizations per year. This project aims to redesign a crib to improve its safety with these statistics in mind. It was presented by the non-profit organization Kids In Danger, which is dedicated to improving children’s product safety and to increasing the public’s awareness of dangerous children’s products. The crib produced by this project has been designed to reduce the possibility of hardware failure or loosening and to make the crib easier for the consumer to assemble without error. The new crib can compete with current crib designs and decrease the number of deaths and injuries to children resulting from cribs. | en_US |
