About this app

Brought to you by FRC team 836, The RoboBees, and growingSTEMS(TM).
This is an app to use for scouting during FRC competitions. Requires an active internet connection for live updating. Data may be recorded to the phone and uploaded to the server later, or simply exported to csv locally.
See notes at the bottom for setting up for your team.

This app allows team members watching qualification matches at competitions to record data about the robots. Intended use is for 6 people on a team to watch each match, each one recording data about a single robot. At the beginning of the competition, each device can be assigned a position, and once a match number is entered, the appropriate team numbers will fill in if there is a valid match schedule posted.


It is recommended to associate this app with a server-side database. Each team should set up their own server to use and store their data on. The app has some Data analysis built in (more to be added in future updates), but besides that, it is up to each team to analyze their own data.

Server side code requires a LAMP server exposed to the internet. Most teams have their own websites, which most likely have LAMP installed.
