The other robots are designed to play stronghold, not specifically disrupt your sensor. The fact that they can disrupt your sensor through normal game play does not put them in violation of R9.

If they had put an unbalanced spinning mass with the exclusive intent to vibrate the field to disrupt your IMU, that would be a violation of R9.
