Does this mean its okay if the bumpers change height due to lowering or raising my wheels/frame to clear obstacles? I'm assuming the bumpers are still rigidly attached to to the frame and within the bumper zone as the frame height changes.
Assuming they are not moving in relation the robot frame. As far as I understand, as long as the raising of your wheels does not create any new corners and modify your robot frame at all, you should be fine.
