Re: Bumper covers, two bumpers sets or reversible bumpers?
 

No, that one looks great! It really does. Well done!

I was just saying that most teams that do the "shower cap", or the reversible covers, don't do them right, which ends up making the robot look unprofessional (with no disrepect to any robots in this thread).

With never seeing a robot operate, people judge robots based on appearances, or how the "think it will work", or how successful they "think it will be". Bumpers are a great way to provide a first impression. If your bumpers don't look good, impressions are already made, without ever seeing your robot perform.

I see your point that is a sad truth, and thank we have took time to master how we make are bumpers look clean

Re: Bumper covers, two bumpers sets or reversible bumpers?
 

My opinion when I posted this was that the only professional way to do bumpers was two sets.

Seeing some of the examples posted here, I see that it's possible to make excellent color-changing bumpers.

The major benefit is the time saved at the competition, however in order for them to function properly I understand that they must be carefully designed and perfected, in order for them to function just as well as two-bumper-sets and leave a good impression on other teams (which is always important).

Thanks everyone.
