SOAP will be at UCF, Chicago, and Houston(if we qualify). We provide access to our database to all teams via the web, the LAN at the competition(if there is one, otherwise we have our own) our wireless access points(802.11b) and laptops at our station. As our driver, I can tell you SOAP makes a big difference. Going up to the field knowing what your opponents can do, and what your ally can really do (as opposed to what they claim to do) and your performance against similiar bots can really help you. The problem with stat sheets and such is they are completely subjective. With SOAP we provide the actual video of the matches, and WASH gives us data averaged out over a large number of people (hopefully improving its accuracy).
