That singular piece of corrugated plastic does not interfere with either the robot's vision OR the drivers. If that was the case, our entire robot should have failed inspection under that same rule.

The intention of the corrugated plastic was to deflect the Frisbees, not interfere with vision. Nor would it have.

There was one robot that had a cape of some sort attached to it- That would cause more vision interference than a relatively small piece of corrugated plastic.
