picture of a ramp? Think inclined plane to guide the totes down gently (so they land flat).

Yes, it needs to be attached to be considered "one robot" and one robot can only have one battery and one roboRIO. A COTS computer on the ramp can not power anything other than itself - do not much use.

BTW: if it is a dumb ramp, the tether could be a string or even dental floss. Something the ref wont trip on while walking the field.
