Re: Pick-up Device

So IMO, don't deploy your "broom and dustpan" ringer-picker-upper while another robot is driveing by. But I would say that it's pretty easy to design something that would not physically be able to "wedge" a robot in any segnificant way. I don't remember the refs and inspectors being REALLY nit-picky about things, but if you did something that could maybe possibly be bad, but in 98% of circumstances wouldn't ammount to much, then they just tell you to be carefull!
