So it needs barcodes to be read?
If the lulz are the point, then: Just build hide the thing in the floor-cleaning robot. Include a decent camera (they're very cheap) to catch the barcodes.
If the comms last long enough as the machine passes by to program some tags every night, then some tags get programmed every night. Nobody will pay attention to the robot's new purple floodlight in the cameras.
The code mentions composing an address from the barcode, yes.
Shop floor cleaning robots seem to be rather clean on the outside, hard to imagine tampering with one in the field and making it inconspicuous.
