Subject: [alt-beam] Re: adapive walking thanks for the responses


I'm using the ADXL202 Accelerometer from Analog Devices in a current project.
http://www.analog.com/iMEMS/mpd/products.html
It's cheap, has 2 axis on one chip, +/-2g perfect for tilt measurement and
operates on 2.7V-5V 0.5mA. It has analog outputs which can be BEAMized very
easily.
