Re: Scouting?

We at 3138 wrote an HTML5 webapp, the "Innovators Predictive Analytics Scouting System" (IPA). This is designed to go beyond the usual "picklist" system many teams use their scouting data for, and into per-match strategy. Our, and other teams', drive team[s] were able to not only change personal strategy to be more effective for the upcoming matches, but collaborate with the alliance to sometimes change the predicted outcome of the matches entirely. The data is also open to anyone with the URL, so it's not limited to helping our team and alliances: folks were dropping by our pit constantly at Worlds to check on their stats.

I am the client-side developer of this system and would be more than willing to explain this in more detail if needed. I could also work with you to set it up for your event, if you wished. (As a matter of fact, we're already using it for an event 3138 is not competing in: we're sending some folks over to IRI this week to use the system and demo for a few teams that may be interested in seeing it in use).

For now, though, feel free to read the thread here:
