Re: Are these bumpers legal? (Another bumper thread)
There is nothing like referencing the actual rule...
R28 Team numbers must be displayed and positioned on the BUMPERS such that an observer walking around the perimeter of the ROBOT can unambiguously tell the Team’s number from any point of view and meet the following additional criteria:
A. consist of numerals at least 4 in. high, at least ½ in. in stroke width, and be either white in color or outlined in white
B. must not wrap around sharp corners (less than 160 degrees) of the FRAME PERIMETER
Blue Box
There is no prohibition against splitting Team numbers onto different
sections of BUMPER. The intent is that the Team’s number is clearly
visible and unambiguous so that Judges, Referees, Announcers, and
other Teams can easily identify competing ROBOTS.
Sorry, I have to side with the "I can't really tell what the team number is" crowd. While really cool, the logo confuses the "0". More importantly, other teams cannot do the same thing due to logo designs, shapes, etc. See you next week in Duluth...
