I would propose that each robot have a set of lights that can be used to signal the human player at the feeder station.
Blue light on, feed blue square tube
Red light on, feed red triangle tube
No lights on, feed white circle tube (I figured this would be better than having both lights on, in case one light was obstructed and the feeder fed the wrong tube.)

If teams don't read CD (heaven, forbid!), and adopts some standard communication practice, then the analyst would just have to deal with whatever the human player decides and go from there.

Thoughts?
