Has anyone played with Hall Effect sensors yet? Take three of them on
orthogonal axis and you can measure 3-axis orientation. The Earths magnetic
field at the scale of a Lego-bot is pretty homogenious.

I heard of an IC that would give an absolute bearing. This would be
quite useful for knowing the orientation of the bot. Has anybody
seen stuff like that ?

Cheers,
