This is what I am thinking. 6 people, each watching a robot, each with stop watches. Track how long a robot holds the ball, how they received it, number of zones occupied in possession, and the result of ejecting the ball (high goal fail/success, low goal fail/success, truss, to HP, roll on floor, mishandle). In general, less time is better. However, a robot with the ball for 10 seconds that receives a pass from a partner on the floor and rolls it on the floor to another partner while occupying 1 zone total is not apples to apples with a robot that spends 10 seconds with the ball by receiving it from the floor, occupies 2 zones in possession, then hits the high goal 95% of its attempts. The time is the same, but it's a different set of actions. This is where combining data in a digestible format and information analysis becomes incredibly important.
