Robots Exploration

I want to make an exploration project. Basically, one PC will control two ez-robots to search an object, if one robot finds it, it will send confirmation message to the PC, then the PC will send another message to the other robot to stop it. The key point is how to transfer and receive data wireless. Does anyone have any ideas to do this?

Newb Question, Can I Edit Poses By Typing?

I am trying to edit poses, and only appear to be able to click and drag to change values for each servo. I want to just click and type values, but that has not worked. Export and import gives me a work-around, but the rest of Builder is so user friendly I am hoping I am just missing something. I go into auto position, click settings, then select or...
