If the ball comes off the ground while you are in possesion of it AT ALL whether it is intentional or not IS a pentalty. The point of these rules is so that you can design a mechanism which does not all this to happen. You need to think of these problems preemptively and that is what the rules intend. Whether or not you were pushed over the bump or get a ball stuck on the top of your robot is not a factor. The rules are the rules, just like a hand ball in real soccer.
