COTS-a “Commercial, Off-The-Shelf” COMPONENT or MECHANISM, in its unaltered, unmodified
state. A COTS item must be a standard (i.e. not custom order) part commonly available from the
VENDOR, available from a non-team source, and available to all teams for purchase.

Emphasis mine

Although you could make the argument that IRI is non-team. That could be scary with 910's robot in a future year with 1114's lift.
