So there could very well be more to the game. The comment at rules G11 and G40 imply robot-human interaction of an unknown sort. Here's what they say:

Passing a BALL to a HUMAN PLAYER is within game play and not a violation of G11.
If not actively engaged with receiving or releasing a BALL, we strongly recommend that TEAMS stay fully behind the HUMAN PLAYER BARRIER during the MATCH. (G40)
What is "unknown" about that? The rules and game video both state that robots can pass and receive balls from the HPs.
