Re: scoting program
Let's see--there are scouting sheets from past years in Whitepapers.
OK, that might not answer your question. Let's compare the two main types of scouting:
Pit Scouting
You go around the pits and talk to teams about their robots, take pictures, find out specs. Great for finding out what to look for, but don't rely on it totally. You can't tell until you see the team in action what they cna really do. Which leads us to the next type:
Match (Action) Scouting
Several people (suggested minimum of one per robot) watch the matches. Each person takes notes on one robot's performance, often using a prepared sheet. As long as all the robots are scouted, you're fine. Then you compile all the data through whatever algorithm/sorting method you use, and determine who is the best partner.
The best method: combination. Pit scouting Thursday, match scouting both Friday and Saturday. Your choice what to use.
