| I've been thinking about how I might replace the RCX's IR communication with something that doesn't require line-of-sight, eg using RF. I'm not much of an analog hardware guy so I thought I'd ask about the feasability of it first... I'm considering (...) (23 years ago, 15-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)

| I have had this problem with one or two of my RCXs. I think the problem is that the CPU/RAM get into a "funny" state as the supply voltage drops after the batteries are removed. Once in this state, re-inserting batteries just brings the power up to (...) (23 years ago, 2-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)
