		RE: good way to detect the proximity of the RCX?
Yes, that requires the RCX to receive. What I am looking for is a function which is much like the "is RCX in view" in the direct mode. This function allows the IR tower to detect any RCX in range, even the RCX is in in idle state, but just on, .... (...) (19 years ago, 10-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

Hi I understand that Robolab has a feature to detect if the RCX is in view thru the direct mode. However, this only means it has to face toward the IR tower which connected to the PC. Then, how about the way a RCX's capability to detect the whether (...) (19 years ago, 9-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
