Default Directional antena and beacon for robot guidance

The light beam idea is different but it does bring complications
For drag race you haven't got time to focus a light upon a small object
that is moving
Fior this purpose it would seem that a small verticle would suffice
such that the vehicle responds immediatly to commands I assume that as
a drag race range power is not a requirement. Richard was your aproach
based on a guided path control by light rays such that contact would
provide a direction correcting command?

Thank you for your help,


Hi OM,

Skip antennas and transmitters and use a light beam, or several.
