"arena field switches"

[reilly]

Thank you Ryan and Greg for clearing things up a bit.

Also I would like to know the 'engineering aspect' of how it this is done: when a human player steps off of the pressure-sensitive mat they are standing on, that human player's robot is disabled until the human player steps back onto the mat.

Is there programming that should be done by the teams to accommodate the pressure sensitive switches?

I guess it should be obvious by now that I am not clear about how the robot is controlled by the pressure sensitive mat.
