Not a string, a tape measure. Not a stiff metal one, but a flexible one made of plastic or cloth, like the ones used by tailors. Inspectors will wrap it around the robot with its bumpers removed. They will measure in the BUMPER ZONE defined in R22.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
