The device also includes an actuator configured to cause a relative rotation between the first platfoiin and the second platfoiin such that the first side of the first platfoiin re- mains within the predetermined distance to the second side of the second platform. The device also includes a probe mounted to the first platform, and a plurality of probes mounted to the second platform. The device also includes a signal conditioner coupled to the plurality of probes. The signal conditioner may select one of the plurality of probes based on an orientation of the first platform relative to the second platform. The sig- nal conditioner may then to use the selected probe for wireless commu- nication with the probe on the first platfoiin. 60 60 Transmit a wireless signal using a probe mounted to a first platform Rotate the first platform relative to a second platform, wherein a plurality of probes are mounted to the second platform 1 Select one of the plurality of probes based on an orientation of the first platform relative to the second platform • Use the selected probe to receive the wireless signal transmitted by the probe on the first platform W O 20 17 / 13 2060 Al FIG. 6 WO 2017/132060 Al MIDEDIMOMOIDEIHMEMOMMIMMIMINIMEHOIS GM, KE, LR, LS, MW, MZ, NA, RW, SD, SL, ST, SZ, TZ, UG, ZM, ZW), Eurasian (AM, AZ, BY, KG, KZ, RU, TJ, TM), European (AL, AT, BE, BG, CH, CY, CZ, DE, DK, EE, ES, FI, FR, GB, GR, HR, HU, IE, IS, IT, LT, LU, LV, MC, MK, MT, NL, NO, PL, PT, RO, RS, SE, SI, SK, SM, TR), OAPI (BF, BJ, CF, CG, CI, CM, GA, GN, GQ, GW, KM, ML, MR, NE, SN, TD, TG).
