[comp.dcom.telecom] Linking a Moving Target to a PS/PC-AT

miguel@uunet.uu.net> (12/27/89)

Hi world,
 
I am working in a project where I must link a moving target (a robot)
to a PS/PC-AT.

The target would move in a straight way more or less 100 metres. I 
have thought of two ways to do it:
 
  - Infrared link with high power infrared leds
  - Low power RF (not regulated)
   
The problems are that it is an enviroment where would be severals
computers and full of magnetics tapes (don't Know if RF would afect
the computers ) and the problems that may have the IRED wave to focus
in a moving target.
   
Has anybody there seen, tried, heard of, some commercial products to
do something similar?  If so, please tell me whose products, and if
possible where can I get the specifications of them.  Please answer
directly to my address below because I am not in all the newsgroupst
hat I am posting this to.

Thank you in advance,
