Scouting in Michigan

[Alex Dinsmoor]

Well if any of you saw my thread about our mediawiki scouting system, you know we are using that. We will have it on a USB drive, and will have a laptop (or desktop) out in our pit with the wiki on display for anyone to use.

We also use a pen and paper system system to get the initial data, and also have every student on my team that isn't a driver (about 30) scout 4 matches of every team they are assigned to. That way we get information about the robot and how they preform on the field.

As of right now we don't store the match data digitally, but if I have spare time this week I will develop a match archive system for the wiki.

If you guys see us in the pits at an event and you want a copy, we SHOULD have a copy available for other teams to put on a USB drive for their own use.
That's not finalized though.

In the wiki we also will have pictures of every robot at the event unless there we cannot get a picture for some reason.
