They use it to connect sensor mountings to the robot chassis in the
Constructopedia robots. The chassis and sensor array each have one of those
blue things, and they are locked together by the double yellow connector,
which can be inserted into the top, left or right, as seen in that diagram.
Gives you a variety of solid mounting positions at different orientations
and displacements.
Note the RCX - I believe it's still the same shape, except for two extra
studs at the ex-power connector end.
