Hi all,
I just pushed an update to the Breakdown Power Ratings Android app and the frc-power-calc Java library that enables both tools to work for the 2019 season.
From my original announcement post:
A team’s BPR in a scoring area shows the team’s average contribution to that specific scoring area. For example, a Steamworks robot that scored a large number of points spending the entirety of every match dumping fuel into the low goal would have a high low-goal BPR but a low climbing or rotor BPR. BPR is an entirely objective statistic calculated using data reported by the FMS and the same math as familiar stats like OPR, DPR, and CCWM.
Somebody kindly responded to my announcement post last year informing me that in the CD community, BPR is an existing metric that is referred to as cOPR, or Component OPR, and informed me that there already are Excel sheets created to calculate it. Nevertheless, I will continue to maintain this app and library as it is something that my team uses and I feel the community could benefit from the immediacy and convenience of a mobile app compared to an Excel sheet.
Happy Scouting!
