Re: Will you be running a bumper?
Yes, we're using bumpers. Biggest reason is the free 15 lbs of extra weight. Our robot is a ramper which we have designed wide enough to accomodate robots with bumpers. With all the ramps deployed we're almost 10ft wide, We have enough parking space 12 inches above the carpet for two bots with or without bumpers. Btw our ramps aren't just for parking robots on.
