Thanks for the reply.

The following might be of use for backgournd information,
This balance robot uses ultrasonic sonar sensors, and IR distance detectors (I would like to build it with a IMU)

You're probably going to need some very fast, high-torque motors. Servos probably
won't be fast enough for the drive.
My first step is to create a working balance robot. If I get that to work I can than build a self balancing dolly cart. The amount of information availible on arduino and balancing robots is amazing. My problem is finding a detailed step by step tutorial and then buy the IMU used in the tutorial.
Most tutorials I have read are not very detailed. There are some, even on the arduino forum (like the balancing robot for dummies) but after reading pages and pages of info it seems the more I read the less I understand it.
