Yes, that is true. But I do not think that components are truly custom made. For example the minibot poles use a standard sensor available to anyone through an electronics distributor, and AB sells the stacked panel indicators that are used on top of the pole. The judge interface found on the sides of the fields are simply a tradition panelview system with a special software used for a GUI. And if I understand the panelview software correctly that the panelview connects to a server (FMS) and then receives the program over ethernet.

So yes in some sense I am asking for a lot. I am asking for when they release the data about the new field to the public that I be on that list.
