rotating sling

Hi all,
I came up with the idea of a baby sling which can rotate so the baby can either look at me or "the great world".

I have only made it as a prototype, so I am not entirely sure that it will look exactly this way.
The main components behind it is a vertical main frame against the body, where in the top there is a horizontal disc with a wide harness - actually more of a "bag" the baby sits in (the bag has holes for the babys legs). And of course some fabric on top of the disc so the baby is not harmed in any way.

I will upload a picture of it pretty soon (but remember it is only a prototype)

What do you think of the idea?

I’m not sure how this is different to the many slings on the market that do inward and outward facing options.

I don't believe outward facing slings are recommended at all tbh, not great for baby's hips.

with this sling the idea is that you can rotate the baby or child without actually lifting them before rotating. So instead of using energy on lifing and rotating, you can just rotate the disc and the baby or child will be rotated
