This project requires that you have an accelerometer fitted.
In other words it's only for laptops that have one of those "drop me and I'll try to protect myself" things fitted.

Either it's for detecting huge earthquakes of the Wow My Laptop's Dancing variety, or they are goin to get an awful lot of false positives as children or lorries thunder by.

It would be good if the website detailed the hardware you need to get started.
