Alright, I'm thinking this might be some sort of hint. (For those that don't know, Kres was part of the GDC for this year's FVC game.)

As one of the autonomous referees in Atlanta, I can say from experience that autonomous matches were just not that exciting. There wasn't much to them--the better ones might get their one starting ball into the center goal and hopefully hit the pad.

So perhaps instead of an autonomous match, this year's game will have an element that can only be done (or done well) with the use of sensors. Call that one how you'd like.
