My team used pit scouting to get a general idea of what we should expect robots to be able to do.
- We gave three options: Shooting, breaching, and defending, and asked teams to rank their priority to them.
- We had teams check off any defenses they knew they could cross reliably.
- We asked about any obvious weaknesses they knew of (taken with large grains of salt)
- We asked what their autonomous could do.
- We asked where their human player preferred to go,
- We left a space for notes and a space for if their robot wit undergoing significant modifications.
We found this helpful for pre-match strategy, for both partners and opponents, and for putting together a list of teams to pay closer attention to that may complement us.
