What is the height range of how high the bumpers around the robot can be off the ground? (From the bottom of the bumper)

Thanks in advance.

Re: Bumper Height

This is a repost thread of mine a little while ago. They need to be on 5" tall vertical plywood between 1" and 7" inches from the ground.

Re: Bumper Height

A BUMPER is 5" in height. It must remain in the BUMPER ZONE, which is a volume between two planes, 1" and 7" off the ground. Therefore the bottom of the BUMPER must be between 1" and 2" off the ground.

Re: Bumper Height

Direct from page section 8.2 (page 4) "Bumper Zone - The volume contained between two viryual horizontal planes, one inch above the floor and seven inches above the floor" Soo.. there can only be a 1" from the floor to the bottom of the bumper. And the bumper top can only be 7" from the floor to the top of the bumper.
