If you read the blue box for clarification under the rule, it lists some more specific examples of what you can and cannot do. Basically, you can design and build prototypes and such in the offseason, but you can't then use the exact prototype you built on a robot, unless it is publicly available prior to Kickoff. This applies to both hardware and software.
