It seems they went to a lot of trouble to show how a team can place a tube in front of a sensor to negate the possibility of interference from other remotes/ambient light. Besides (and correct me if I'm wrong) the code triggered by an IR input most likely wouldn't get interrupted by another IR signal (i.e. in Mr. Lavery's example, "go check out that rock AND THEN come back to me and await the next command"). Ninja/Pirate remotes shouldn't be a concern to a thoughtful team.

My concern (and someone well-versed in IR frequency may very well dispute this) is that a robot may get "confused" or receive the wrong signal from the other robocoach on the alliance. What are the chances that two robocoaches would use remotes that operate on the same frequency?
