The self-initiated prone progression crawler (SIPPC) is a new, unique, and innovative form of

intervention that infants with CP can use to facilitate self-initiated prone locomotion. The SIPPC

consists of a wheeled platform designed to fit a 4- 12 month old infant (weight range from 15 to

25 lbs). The platform is fitted with a computer underneath, has device position encoders and

embedded force sensing resistors that records information on load distribution and direction

during the infant's movement attempts.
