One of the widely used IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) chips is MPU-6050. It contains gyroscopes combined with accelerometers and universally used in smart phones, video game remotes, quad-copters, etc. It is very inexpensive and easy to setup with all resources online.
Two excellent tutorials: DIYHacking and here. The Arduino site has some general information. If you need more information about the ...
Let machine do the dirty work. To continue what I started in last post, I tried to see if it is possible to parse the SVG file and generate arduino sketch code out of it. The answer is yes. There is a wonderful post and a SVG Optimiser which helps me greatly for this project.
