Google "google autonomous car" then read. This car has now been allowed to run in a few states but the google autonomous car legal liabilities have not yet been fully determined. There are many articles about this.

Hi again, I have a question. I googled it, and all that, but couldn't find an answer. What is a DOF? They were mentioned to me but I have no idea what it is. Regards, mt360

Before you say "it won't work," you need to specify the parameters you need. What sensitivity (in gs) do you need? Is 1/100th of a g sufficient? 1/1000th of a g? What frequency of vibrations do you need to detect? 1 Hz? 10 Hz? 10 kHz? Once you know this, you can look at the data sheets for the various sensors and accelerometers available.

Thanks! I'm not planning to make one with a moveable turret, that might be a bit much, but I have most of it worked in my head, I just need to figure out the leg motion stuff. I love the section 'how to fund for your robot' (http://www.societyofrobots.com/robotfunding.shtml) That has helped me a lot!

I appreciate these responses and will investigate. However with the I2C, I believe this would not work because i will use it to detect and analyze low level surface vibrations
