I don't see why the sensor won't be connected to some mega box on the field and pumped to the teams' DS over the network. I don't think each team will be required to supply a Kinect and a beefy laptop for each match. Then again..

In this scenario, teams would have to upload their modified kinect server to the "mega box" on the field.

That's a great point. The Kinect server application is free to be modified by the teams, which is an argument in favor of the "bring your own laptop" arrangement.
