Some discussion of different scouting elements for 2012 IRI have begun to appear in other threads. I thought it would be a good idea to merge these ideas together into one thread.
For starters, FRC Designs has now updated their website with a picture of every robot attending the 2012 IRI! You can view every robot and download the entire album!

STINGER OUT - Stinger of any kind applied outside of frame perimeter (i.e. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1yEcfc-twnM&feature=player_detailpage#t=268s)
STINGER IN - Stinger of any kind applied inside frame perimeter (i.e. http://youtu.be/Ar6CMCwlW5k)
BRAKES - Braking/stay put system - mechanical brakes, pneumatic pad onto bridge surface, etc.
PID BRAKES - Deserves its own category if no other mechanical braking present, as control stops once match ends.
OVERHANG(+) - Can hang at least 12" of robot off the bridge. Use OVERHANG+ if you have additional features to secure the bot that don’t fall into any other category - wood blocks, wedges, tilting arm to affect COG :-), etc.

How about the video where the picture was taken,
Or a match of us in St. Louis.
Also, we use mecanum drive.
744 is now:
744…Stinger In…Overhang…brakes
We added a front appendage for IRI which allows us to pick up much easier and faster. So far it appears to have translated to much quicker scoring, that we are very happy about.
Adam,
I updated as much as I could. Check it out! Thanks!

Im not sure which teams you would like better pictures for but here is a link to the teams at Queen ctiy. The picture u have for us is our first Gen. this picture in the link is 2nd and with some modifications the 3rd gen will compete at IRI.
http://www.idleloop.com/frctracker/photos-view.php?year=2012&event_code=OHC
I have uploaded a photo of us (447) stacked triple balancing. Not demonstrated in the photo is the ability to overhang. No stinger or brakes, but we do also have auto-balance unfortunately there is not anyway to reference these attributes so I guess we are:
447 …Long…Overhang…stacker…autobalance
We never have officially measured our overhang at competition. On the practice field we have measured overhang in excess of 12 inches depending on the weight distribution of the two other robots we placed on the ramp. Here is a picture of our overhang at the Hartford, CT regional earlier this year.

Few things I wouldn’t mind seeing on the list
-Drop down ingester
-Co-op bridge knockdown auto with time
-Co-op bridge ball collection with time
-Alliance bridge auton
548 as of now only has a drop down ingester from the list above.
1592, off that list, can go to the co-op in auto and collect balls in auto and has time to go shoot them.
We have brakes when in low gear.
68 currently has a Co-op bridge ball collection Auton.
I noticed it’s not in your list but it might be worth adding whether or not a team can feed/get fed in auton. 68 can get fed 2 balls, and shoot them, and we can feed out our front intake rollers.
From Bjenks’ list, 447 has both Co-Op Knockdown Auton w/Time & Alliance Bridge Auton…working to add a few more variations of these for IRI.
Team RUSH 27 has autons that knock down and occasionally retrieve the balls on the co-op bridge in attempts to score the balls. We do not have an auton to get the alliance bridge but one of our autons will shoot the 2 balls then head over there to be ready for when teleop starts. We also have a 99%ish auton to score 2 pointers. We can’t guarantee it will work 100% of the time but it works VERY efficiently. In addition, we can make the 3 pt shot as well.
