Well, I've now done a small test schema, and I'm pretty impressed. The major functions work and I could see using this.

One piece I couldn't get to work however was the QR code data collection. When I brought up the data collection on the Windows Server it didn't show any image -- I was hoping it would display what the web cam saw. Without any feedback I'm afraid I wasn't able to align the QR code displayed on my tablet with the Windows server's webcam.

I assume you just didn't get a chance to implement a display of the webcam image, but it seems to me that would be pretty essential for reliable data collection in the stands. http data collection just seems logistically implausible.

Finally, I would urge you to open the source. I have students who could likely help polish some of the rougher parts of the program, and I may be able to find time to work on this myself. Particularly the Windows Server part, as I used to be a developer at Microsoft.

Worked for me. Did you select your webcam from the drop down menu?

I got the server to run and I *think* I have it successfully ported out. However when I try navigating to it I see HTML but it is essentially blank.


I have a couple schema files in the Roaming folder and I'm assuming they should be listed here, right? Why might they not be?

Also tried on the Android app, no schemas there.

Any pointers? If you wanna release the code I could take a look :D

Since you're running in a VM, you might need to put an exception into the Mac firewall for the port to allow incoming connections. You do have it successfully ported out though. The HTML is supposed to be essentially blank, there's nothing programmed to be there, except for it to load. This will be one of the UX changes that comes in the next version.

SenorZ has it right. You need to pick the webcam from the drop down. That feature was rushed into the final version, so the UX isn't the best on it. UX changes are some of the largest upcoming features in the next version. The QR scanner actually only scans on the camera that is showing on the reader (as selected in the drop down).

Having trouble viewing the data after sending it to my laptop/ not sure if it send. Got this error: "Unexpected end-group in source data; this usually means source data is corrupt." Any ideas?

Where did this error show up? On the app, or the server?

On the server upon trying to scan the QR Code

Hi my team is new to this whole app and server relay for scouting data and I was wondering if you could post a guide as how to set it up.

Hi! While I did select my webcam from the drop down menu, my laptop still isn't scanning the QR code, no matter how I hold it. Are there webcam requirements for scanning codes, or is there another issue here?

Interesting... Not quite sure why that's happening. Any chance you can screenshot the QR code and send me that image and a copy of your schema file?

There is a setup/usage guide at http://github.com/jkoritzinsky/SuperScouter4FRC/wiki

There aren't any set requirements, but I have noticed that some webcams do sometimes have problems with the scanning, probably because they don't have high enough resolution.

Do you need to send data after every match or can you collect data all day and then send it after the day is over?

Re: SuperScouter For FRC -- A Multiplatform, Extensible Scouting System
 
While you can send data at the end of the day, I would recommend doing it as often as you can. That way if any data were to be lost from the phones, you would not lose as much.

Upon trying to replicate the error today, I didn't have any luck, but I'll send it to you if I ever get the error again.

On a slightly different note, this may be a stupid question, but how do I view the data sent to the server?

You can export the data with the button in the bottom left corner. It will allow you to save a zip file that contains csv files that have all of the data.

Re: SuperScouter For FRC -- A Multiplatform, Extensible Scouting System
 
Hi,
Thank you very much for making this app.
I have a question about transmitting data. I tried to use QR codes and scan them into my computer. This worked 2 weeks ago but is no longer working. The QR reader just says Scanning... and doesn't do anything. We also tried http over wifi (I know that the competition does not have wifi, this was just for testing) and it gave us a huge error.
Can you please help us?
Thank you very much.
