Well, you could have robot2robot communications... but for something that simple you can just have an IR receiver/transmitter.

I'm not familiar with your exact chip, but if it has RS232 you can use that to talk to the other chips. It'd be a lot cheaper to have a tether, but there are wireless RS232 adapters that would work the same way.
