In the starting configuration, and pretty much any time when they're not catching, the net stores well inside the frame perimeter and is pretty tight and out of the way. Once the net is out, it's pretty high off the ground, meaning that a lot of robots actually can go right under it.

I'll admit that I was skeptical of this robot at the beginning, but it's starting to grow on me.
I see ... But our net is 20 cm off the ground, always extended outside the frame perimeter, dangling, and kind of loose.
