RCX which requires two way communications.
I suspect the average booster, if used in pairs, nose to tail
so to speak, would simply feed back on its own signal and
not correctly handle two way communications.
I await enlightenment .... (excuse the pun ;)

| Hi John, of course you're right. (I really didn't think about it that far !) This might (will ?!?) result in a feedback-loop (like holding a microphone in front of the speaker the microphone works for) The only way to avoid this will be to optically (...)

| It appears to me that the solutions provided so far are 2 way. You have two devices, each one is a transceiver/receiver. The IR Tower talks to one, it translates to radio signal, send the signal to the other device, and then the other device (...) (23 years ago, 22-Jun-01, to lugnet.robotics)
