Re: Touchsensors in the Bumpers legal?

The touch sensors cannot be incorporated into the bumper.
They have to be behind the bumper within the confines of the robot frame that supports the bumpers.

Quote:
<R16> During normal operation no part of the ROBOT shall extend outside the vertical projection of the FRAME PERIMETER, except as permitted by Rule <G30>.
There is a rule that allows us to push them out as far as the bumper front edge, but only for a maximum of 2 seconds.
