Add an exclusion area in the robot’s map.

Or a link back to the farmer. He can sit in his kitchen drinking his coffee, and if the robot encounters something it's not set up to deal with, it can call the farmer, show him video and audio of the situation, and he can take over remotely.

One farmer can monitor a bunch of robots.
