Re: The Bumper Rules

Bumpers also need to be positioned so that any contact your robot makes with anything else (like a wall) needs to be only bumper to bumper contact.
Quote:
The BUMPER location and design have been specified so that ROBOTS will make BUMPER-to-BUMPER contact during any collisions. If implemented as intended, a ROBOT that is driven into a vertical wall in any normal PLAYING CONFIGURATION will always have the BUMPER be the first thing to contact the wall.
