R07-Bumper configuration legality
 
according to R07

"BUMPERS must provide complete protection of the entire FRAME PERIMETER of the ROBOT (i.e. BUMPERS must wrap entirely around the ROBOT). The BUMPERS must be located entirely within the BUMPER ZONE when the ROBOT is standing normally on a flat floor, and must remain there (i.e. the BUMPERS must not be articulated or designed to move outside of the BUMPER ZONE)."

so is this design legal?

Assuming the Blue are bumpers, all are at least 6 inches, and the indentation is 3 inches.

The rule says it all ... entire FRAME PERIMETER of the ROBOT (i.e. BUMPERS must wrap entirely around the ROBOT) ...

So no, not legal, since it does not wrap entirely around the robot. No gaps are allowed.

Not legal. Part of your frame perimeter is not protected by a bumper.
