We're using a cell phone USB hub to send a signal from our complex of 8 tablets to a server, and then sending a signal from a server to an iPhone app used by our drive team to see our scouting data in real time (we hope.) We're still ironing out the bugs, but we've successfully run a rudimentary system in 2 regionals. Sharing scouting data would be interesting.
