I was part of a group that used optical mice as encoders. It was a bit of a pain in the neck to start, but worked well once it worked at all.
One idea I'm fiddling with is measuring the current to the motors to approximate torque. A 20% difference between slip and grip should be measurable. I wish we had CAN this year, since the Jag's have that feature built in.
