Lightbulb Performance Scouter

I made a program that takes data on which robot scores which points, and then seeds the teams based on their individual performance. During each match, whenever a robot scores, the user inputs that score to whichever team made the points in that section (automode, teleop, endgame). At the end of the match the program will add the results to previous data and show which teams are best in which areas. The original intent was to be able reseed teams that are normally seeded highly just because they were often paired with good teams. The user has to watch each match and enter data during match play, but the results are pretty useful. Our team (Channel Cats) was able to pick for our third alliance member a team that was arguably one of the top five in the whole regional, but was shunted down the standard seed because of a lot of coincidences.
I've also added a match strategy advisor, which recommends which teams ought to play defense, deploy during endgame, hang during endgame, etc.

I made it with the iPad in mind, but I don't have the resources to actually make it that format. (at this time)
