Talking Re: Wiimote Digital Scouting System

Hi, everyone.

The early release of the 2010 Breakaway wiimote scouting software is now available for download. The Wiimote Scout data entry program is located at www.nventivity.com/wiimotescout2010.zip and the Wiimote Scout DB Analyzer program is located at www.nventivity.com/wiimotescoutanalyzer2010.zip. The updated wiimote button assignments can be found at www.nventivity.com/Scout2_Instr.pdf.

The software has the ability to import robot images and match lists directly from www.thebluealliance.net. Just follow the event links and press the buttons for "Click here for match listings" and "Click here to view teams attending" to get to the appropriate URLs. (At this time, the 2010 match listings and robot images are not available. but you can use the 2009 match listings and robot images to see how this feature will work.) You can add missing robot images to the image database and view them on the Setup screen by pressing the Home button. Once imported, team numbers are automatically filled in, too.

The Rankings table in the DB Analyzer program includes a custom weighting function that allows you to assign points for any of the tracked parameters. Custom graphs provide weighted performance sorted by rank and by team number. A printable strategy sheet with robot motion and shooting summaries and a field map is also included.

Please let me know if you find any bugs. I wanted to release it quickly so that there would be plenty of time to practice.
