Hi Dag,
This ISM band, isn't this radio frequency technology, because this is
forbidden by the particular racing regulations? I've seen some pages
about WLAN technology with infrared devices (hanging on the ceiling) but
these are not for a students budget :-) Perhaps the devices used in the
system might be affordable as long as it isn't a complete system?
(Perhaps you know some links?)
