G106 Tall Robots not allowed. Robot height, as measured when its resting normally on a flat floor, may not exceed 6 ft. 6 in. (~198 cm)) above the carpet during the MATCH.
Violation: Foul.
This measurement is intended to be made as if the Robot is resting on a flat floor, not relative to the height of the Robot from the Field carpet.
For example, a Robot that is at an angle while driving over something may actually exceed the height limit when compared to the carpet of the Field.
