Re: Tips from a veteran Robot Inspector
Martin,
You have pointed out a common mistake when checking the rules. In the case of the Q&A the answer is referring to the bumper. Another part of the rules say that the bumper must be fully supported by robot frame.
[R33]
Bumpers must be supported by the structure/frame of the Robot (i.e. each end of the Bumper must be rigidly attached
to the Frame Perimeter, the gap between the backing material and the frame must not be greater than ¼ in. and no
section of Bumper greater than 8 in. may be unsupported). See Figure 4-7.
It is for this reason, I always add..."all bumper rules must be satisfied".
