Scouting in a nutshell?

[wilhitern1]

Each game requires different strategies. Your job is to identify the strategies and appropriate statistics to represent successful use of the strategy. Then you provide that information for your robot and obtain that information for others.

So lets take Logo Motion. It was critical to be able to pickup off of the floor. It was important to know what rows you could easily place the tubes on. If you had an automation and your percentage of placement during automation. If you had a minibot, your percentage of attachment to the tower, and your speed up the tower. Other concepts were also possible.

So knowing those things, I'd mass produce a statistics note card for my robot and a check sheet for the other team's robot.

I hope that's helpful...
