Where to place Hall Effect Sensors.

wheel "slippage" can only occur on a wheel which offeres some resistance to turning (i.e. a powered wheel or one with a brake turned on et cetera), so if you used a wheel that was not powered to count revolutions, that wheel would not slip therefor no problem.....

also, you were given an acceleromneter, so you could tell if the acceleration measured by the hall effect sensors (you would need to calculate this) is different than the one you get from the accelerometer, you would know you are slipping.....

calculating the difference between the accelerometer and the hall effect sensors would be difficult, since they do not automaticly have the same units..... though now that i think about it.... you could just use psudo units....
