Abstract
An infant support structure includes a base, a frame coupled to the base, a seat coupled to the frame for movement relative to the base, a motion sensor configured to output a signal associated with a movement of the seat relative to the base, and an output generating system. The frame includes a first frame portion and a second frame portion with the first frame portion being releasable coupled to the seat and pivotably coupled to the base. The output generating system is configured to generate sensible output based on the signal.
