BUMPER Configuration Clarification
<R07.A> BUMPERS must provide complete protection of the entire FRAME PERIMETER of the ROBOT(i.e BUMPERS must wrap entirely around the ROBOT). As part of the 100% coverage, BUMPERS must protect all exterior corners of the FRAME PERIMETER. For adequate protection, a full segment of BUMPER must be placed on each side of the corner.
Our question is, can we have a "notch"/opening in the front of the robot that would house, say, a claw at the beginning of the match? (as long as other BUMPER/ROBOT rules are met; i.e 6 inches of BUMPER and corner coverage, etc).
