Re: pic: Is this corner considered protected?
Hi Al,
It's good to hear from you. For the record this isn't Winnovations robot but I think it raises certain points that are important to discuss. With respect to your point regarding R08 BUMPER to BUMPER contact, the Manual allows up to 1/3 of the BUMPER PERIMETER to be unprotected by BUMPERS. Any ROBOT with a floor accumulator has to take advantage of this allowable 1/3 unprotected offering. Strict compliance with the BUMPER to BUMPER statement you reference would prohibit such accumulators. I don't think prohibition of floor accumulators is the intent of the GDC and I don't see how the portion of this ROBOT which is unprotected by BUMPERS is any more problematic than a floor accumulator opening/unprotected portion of the BUMPER PERIMETER. Thanks, I look forward to seeing you, your team, and your ROBOT at Midwest Scott
