Re: Bumper dimension doubt

Bumpers are evaluated with respect to the corners of the FRAME PERIMETER. In the drawing above, there are four corners and each corner must have 8" of bumper on each side of the corner. If the side of the robot was less than 8" long, the entire side must be covered in bumper. The bumper is evaluated for length by measuring the backing board from the corner of the frame.
Please see the lower left drawing in Fig. 4-3 of the robot rules.
