Re: IR Sensors- will they attack hot Chiaphuas?

I had a similar question: What about all of the other IR interference that comes from the cameras and camcorders in the stands. What about the Media who bring cameras and video cameras into the area right around the outside of the field? What about the cameras that feed the big screen?

For those of you who don't know, the auto-focus on your camera relies on an IR signal being bounced from the camera to the object and back. This tells the camera the focal point.

Will we see robots attempting to leave the field to attack the media? Or, has FIRST put the IR on a different frequency or spectrum (I don't know if this is possible)?
