Maybe, if you wanted to be really flash, when you get the (non-ultra) low
battery warning, your robot could start seeking out the tower, and get ready to
send the data. Maybe have a light near the tower that starts flashing when it
receives a message from RCX that battery is low, and RCX can search for the
light. I saw a (non-lego) robot (many years ago) that used this technique to
seek out a special charging unit when the batteries were getting low.
If you have a RCX 1.0 (with power adapter) you may be able to set up a power
supply near the tower, to make sure power doesn't run out while sending the
data 8?)
