Would this design satisfy <R07M> or does the back of the bumper have to be directly mounted to the robot frame/8020?
Thanks,

To satisfy <R07-M> the back of the bumper must be supported along it's entire length. The easiest (and only) way I have seen this done is with a horizontal member.
To use vertical members there would likely have to be a whole lot of them to support the entire length of the bumper.
