2006 Davis Sacramento Regional
I think it'll be great.
Team 245 is coming in from Michigan again. Please Note: Will there be a practice field at this regional? |

Team 1147 have volunteered our practice field for use at the Regional. I'm not certain where it will be set up yet, but we will have it there. We may have one issue to resolve. While the field was set up at the school, my personal +12vdc power supply to run the Vision Target "grew legs", if you know what I mean. :mad: We may need to find an alternative power source. |
Re: 2006 Davis Sacramento Regional
It can be run off a standard battery that even we could give you.
Great to hear, will it have a carpet? |

EDIT: Carpet is verified, provided by FIRST. 2nd note. YEHAAAAA!!!!! One of the students, in an attempt to be helpful, had removed the power supply and placed it back in the classroom. The problem is, he just forgot to mention it. :o So, the power supply is not an issue either! :D |
Re: 2006 Davis Sacramento Regional
I know FSN is going to be set up and functional at Davis.
Is anyone planning on using STAMP instead? |
Re: 2006 Davis Sacramento Regional
Team 1671 was also panning to do FSN. We're still deciding on STAMP

I can provide the WiFi as well. All I really need is scouts and laptops. I will have paper scouting forms as well in case the range of the router doesn't quite reach all areas. Both the Team and Match scouting forms will be available in both printed and electronic forms. I am not familiar with STAMP other than I have heard it exists. I have no problem at all having both at this comp. I think it would be great to compare them side by side. I just hope there are enough volunteers to do both. |
Re: 2006 Davis Sacramento Regional
BRt1671 also has 2 routers for wireless internet access, so maybe we can boost the signal with multiple routers. Anyways, how are you going to power ur laptops at the stands, long, veyr long externsion cords to the pit? we have people with six laptops also hopefully. we just dont' have enough battery. i don't remember a power outlet in the stands last year. any ideas? If you guys do STAMP, they we can have some people to voluneteer maybe. We're having problems with the number of people scouting though.

1) Six people are assigned to scout for any given match. One for each bot on the floor. 2) Data for that match is collected on paper forms, or can be collected electronically on the same forms and saved with a different file name for each match (you make the call). 3) During a break, end of scouting shift, lunch or when ever works best, all the data from the forms is entered into the database on the server. Six match sheet, one per team, is compiled into a single entry in the "Match Data" on the server. This is the only time that the laptop, PC, PDA need to be booted and on line. This can be done wirelessly or connected, it will depend on the equipment available. The biggest problem at the SVR was there were not too many people wanting to help collect scouting data. So, 971 asked the different teams that ran their own scouting processes if they would share their data, it appeared to help out a lot. Hopefully we can have enough scouts to make this work, if not, we can always ask other teams to share. We really need six people for each match, one to observer each bot, anything less will be very difficult to do. Depending on which router you have, we might be able to set them up as repeaters, but this is usually reserved for Wireless Access Points. Wireless Routers don't usually support that configuration. |
Re: 2006 Davis Sacramento Regional
MadTown Robotics will definetly contribute at least one person to scout each match.
So will there be basically a FSN scouting team that will be comprised of six people (sometimes from different teams) who will take down data which will be given to a "scouting leader" to upload to the server? |

Re: 2006 Davis Sacramento Regional
That sounds good. Maybe on Thursday we can have a signup sheet put in your pit where teams can come sign scouting members up to scout each match and each robot for the following two days. That way we know everything is covered come friday morning.
Do the stats from thursday count too? |
Re: 2006 Davis Sacramento Regional
do you guys have a space to set up in? if you do not have this prearranged with FIRST, you will most likely have to use someone's pit area.

I have begun sign up and welcome sheets already. I have 150 (X2) match forms printed, that will cover 50 matches at 6 bots each. I will see if I can get more printed tomorrow. I also have 50 Team scouting forms. The team forms need to be completed Thursday and the data loaded. This will give practice for the data loading process as well. |
