This could be a possible element for controlling a mini-bot, or to be used in autonomous like that one year that I can't remember off the top of my head...
2008, when teams supplied their own IR remote and Game Hint #1 was the receiver.

No, it hasn't been offered previously. But, there are a number of possible uses, and many teams build a button box for their control station.
