Introducing Electronic Scouting: Tablets
Hey guys, for the upcoming FRC 2015 season I'm going to a second-year Scout Master. Before Aerial Assist, my team (3525) essentially had no scouting whatsoever, and I did my best to amend that. I'm hoping to make an upgrade to electronic scouting instead of paper ($ allowing), and my biggest question right now is: what brand/tablet should I go for? I don't need tablets that are particularly expensive, but they need to be efficient and consistent. I'm not particularly (okay, at all) experienced in programming, and so I wonder: would different programs require different tablets and such? I realize I'm new to the subject and need to enlighten myself, which is why I'm asking so early. Any suggestions or tips would be extremely helpful and appreciated!
