Bumper part of perimeter?

Hey guys, after reading the rules our team is still confused if the bumper is a part of the perimeter, can anyone help us?

Re: Bumper part of perimeter?

No, the bumpers aren't considered part of the FRAME PERIMETER.

The bumper does not count for the frame perimeter's maximum length.

Quote:

total length of the FRAME PERIMETER sides may not exceed 112 in.

Quote:

FRAME PERIMETER: the polygon defined by the outer-most set of exterior vertices on the ROBOT (without the BUMPERS attached) that are within the BUMPER ZONE. To determine the FRAME PERIMETER, wrap a piece of string around the ROBOT at the level of the BUMPER ZONE - the string describes this polygon.

No, the bumpers do not count as a part of your perimeter

Re: Bumper part of perimeter?

Just keep in mind that the bumpers do count as part of 54 inch cyc.
