Computer-Assisted Scouting
MORT made some tentative steps into the brave new world of non-paper scouting this year, with a very buggy, student-developed scout program that never made it to competition.
Despite the fact that this software wasn't ready in time for competition, it raised some interesting points about the benefits and disadvantages of computer-assisted scouting and paper-based scouting.
Who else uses computers to help scout, what software/technologies do you use, and how do you think the system has helped or hurt your scouting abilities?
