Of course they didn't overlook such an obvious rule.... but that means a very steep ramp, which some robots won't be able to climb (But most will, considering they will be designed for crossing the bump).

Very ingenious design. I bet others will be doing something similar
Assuming those are 8" wheels, just taking some measurements off the pic seems to show >14" from the frame, especially when the ramp is in a horizontal position.
