Re: Brainstorm: Improving the FRC bumper rules
What if, in conjunction to Billfred's idea we make it so each corner of the bumper has to be a certain color. If we make it so that each side has to have 3"-4" of alliance coloring then it would be a solid 6"-8" on each corner. More than enough to denote who is on which alliance. Then the middle would be free to be decorated as teams saw fit.

Or (assuming that most robots are a 4 sided polygon...148 from 2008 and 1501 from 2010 would be an exception not the rule) we have opposing sides be colored for alliances, with the other two allowed for team decoration.
