 Like everyone else, I enjoyed your presentation and particularly the
 "feedback" capabilities that you mentioned. I got a little bit excited
 today when I noticed an article in the April 1990 Electronics &
 Technology Today which mentions a "knock" sensor used in programmed
 automove ignition systems. The "knock" sensor is a piezo-electric 
 acceleromet which translates vibrations into signals which are
 interpreted by some programmed system controlling the ignition timing.
 Seeemed to me that your project could be used for this type of thing.
