Team 1629 has tried to do this for the past two years, but the problem is that on Thursday many teams are still making changes or are at practice matches. Because one part of our scouting is pictures of each individual robot for the more visual members of the team, this is very difficult and at our last regional we were still taking pictures as part of pit scouting on Saturday.

Our team has six scouts watching the field and recording information on paper and then the papers are delivered to two other team members that are inputing data to our Acess scouting database on a laptop. These members are also in charge of videotaping the matches, both for scouting and team videos.
