Likewise, if you have designed so close to the "bumper perimeter" that the (admittedly subjective) robot inspection is in jeopardy, you be prepared for a rough time on Thursdays...

Please use common sense!

JMHO,

Please read the thread before posting! As has been repeated MANY times throughout this thread, this debate has nothing to do with violating the sizing box, A 12" square robot can still be iin violation of this rule. If you don't understand what I mean, read back through this thread and it will become clear.
