Smartzones are the only unrealistic components. They are invisible, intangible, very light large boxes who serve as detectors for [[AI]]-ed robots.

Basically, when a smartzone overlaps with an opponent (being intangible), the game detects it, and the smartzone-bearing bot can get a signal from it's AI. Mostly used for [[Poker]]s/[[Hammer]]s/[[Popup]]s/[[Flipper]]s who fire their piston/burst motor when the enemy is in the smartzone, but also, more rarely, for [[Whipper]]s or more complex bots.
