Yes, it would apply. The camera goes through inspection with the robot, and is therefore to be considered as part of the robot. (Note: Just because the camera is considered as part of the robot does not mean it has to be present on the robot in every match.) As I recall, GoPros are less than $400--but the extreme industrial conditions camera probably would be a *little* bit more.
