Marc,
Robots need to maintain the bumper zone except when crossing the barrier or ramp.
As Eric has pointed out, safety is the first issue. As inspectors we would be looking first for ratings on whatever you are using for lift, how it is protected from fingers and other body parts and is it possible for it to come apart during competition. Then we move on to the remainder of the inspection checklist.
