My homeowner's insurance would cover that damage. Check into if that's a viable option for the mentor who's laptop is damaged.
Robots slamming into the drivers station wall has been a problem every single year I've been working matches. I'm sorry for your loss, but it isn't an unpredictable outcome given the dynamics of the games played.
Potential damage from robots is not limited to the field. Arial Assault's exercise balls were pretty damaging to me personally. I had a Microsoft Surface smashed and broken as well as a ThinkPad (luckily it was a ThinkPad and the floor was only concrete) knocked off the scorekeeper table by teams shooting them off the field.
