I104
*Unless the change is listed
below, any change to a ROBOT must get re-inspected. A ROBOT may play MATCHES
with a subset of the MECHANISMS that were present during inspection provided
the reconfigured ROBOT still complies with all ROBOT Construction Rules. Only
MECHANISMS that were present during the inspection may be added, removed, or
reconfigured between MATCHES without re-inspection per this rule. If a ROBOT is
modified after its most recent passed inspection, it must be re-inspected
before it is eligible to participate in a MATCH.
Exceptions are listed in A through F (unless
they result in a significant change to the ROBOT’S size, weight, legality, or
safety).
A.
addition, relocation, or removal of fasteners (e.g. cable ties, tape,
and rivets),
B.
addition, relocation, or removal of labeling or marking,
C.
revision of ROBOT code,
D.
replacement of a COTS COMPONENT with an identical COTS COMPONENT,
E.
replacement of a MECHANISM with an identical MECHANISM (size, weight,
material), and
F.
additions, removals, or reconfiguration of ROBOT with a subset of
MECHANISMS already inspected per I103.
