A motorized, self-propelled stroller that is controllable via a remote control unit. The motorized stroller has a motor, a power source, and a drive shaft that is operably connected to one of the stroller's axles to drive the rotation thereof. A wireless transceiver relays signals sent from the remote control unit to the motor to control the action of the motor. The motor is adapted to drive the rotation of the axle to which it is operably connected in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions, with varying speeds. Reflectors extend along the lateral sides of the stroller frame and lights are disposed on the front portion of the frame, making the stroller more visible during low-light conditions and thus safer to operate. The motorized stroller further includes a motorized assembly that is adapted to fold and unfold the stroller frame in response to input from the remote control unit.

Arranged for at least one of a pair of branch optical waveguides in a Mach-Zehnder type interference optical system is a ring resonance type phase shifter for modulating a light wave signal propagating through the branch optical waveguide. The ring resonance type phase shifter includes a ring-type optical waveguide arranged so as to be mode-coupled with the corresponding branch optical waveguide, and is configured so that amplitude branching ratio K between the corresponding branch optical waveguide and the ring-type optical waveguide can be varied with a change in refractive index or the like, accompanied by voltage application to a pn junction, for example. As amplitude branching ratio K is varied, the phase difference between the light wave signals propagating through the paired optical waveguides varies, to thereby control the intensity of the light wave signal output from the interference optical system.
