I think that something like this would be good to have. The weight of having some sort of foam or other shock absorber around the robot is pretty negligible without the rigid wood framing that were required for bumpers. I think that teams could make some pretty sweet looking, lightweight, vanity bumpers this year. Definitely encouraging my team to try this!
