That's somewhat of an easier problem to solve:

Make sure there's a team policy that team computers are ONLY for TEAM use, or for use on TEAM stuff (CAD, programming, marketing, that sort of thing). (Schoolwork use, too.) Games don't count as a team activity unless expressly given permission.

That will keep the computers clear, or allow non-essential uses to be stopped any time something essential needs doing; it may get the non-robotics students out of the area; it may also deal with any "slackers" on the team.
