During gameplay, can teams communicate with their robots?

Teams can communicate with their robots throughout the entire match, which is essential to the strategic coordination of actions during gameplay. This ongoing communication includes sending commands, receiving data about the robot's performance, and making real-time adjustments based on the unfolding dynamics of the match. This ability allows teams to employ their strategies effectively, adapt to unforeseen circumstances, and maximize their robot's potential to score points and achieve match objectives. By staying in constant contact, teams can leverage their robot's capabilities and respond to the actions of opponents and other teams, making for a more dynamic and engaging competition. Communicating only at specific times, such as just at the start or only during the Endgame, would limit the strategic options available and diminish the excitement of the game.
