Re: 84 inch diameter vertical right cylindrical volume ?

The height is of the cylinder. The height of the box is not separate from the box base (normal configuration). The way it works is with orientation to the robot. Therefore, should the robot tip completely onto one side, it is now in a horizontal right cylinder with a 90" length and an 84" diameter.
