1. VEX Scouting Smart Glasses

   For Even Realities G2

   VEX Scout puts live competition data from RobotEvents on a pair of Even Realities G2 smart glasses, so a team can follow rankings, match schedules, skills standings, and its own scouting notes without looking at a phone.

   Specifications

   What it does

   VEX Scout is an application for Even Realities G2 smart glasses built for V5 Robotics Competition teams. It pulls live event data from events.vex.com and shows the parts a team needs between matches in the corner of its field of view:

   • the team’s own standing: rank, win-loss-tie record, WP, AP, SP, and high score;
   • the next match, with its number, scheduled time, field, and both alliances;
   • the whole division: full rankings, the complete schedule including the elimination bracket, and the skills leaderboard;
   • scouting notes, the team’s own and a shared Google Doc, filed by team number;
   • live notifications as match results post, skills records change, and when it is time to queue;
   • lookup of any team by voice or from the roster, with its full schedule.

   Specifications

   • Display: 576 by 288 pixels, controlled with three gestures on the glasses
   • Data source: the RobotEvents API, using the team’s own API token
   • Works offline from the last sync, so a venue without reliable connectivity does not blank the display
   • Tracks one division at a time at multi-division events; teams in other divisions are fetched individually for lookup

   Requirements

   Setup is done on a companion phone app, since anything that needs typing (the API token, the event code, the team number, and written notes) lives where a keyboard does. Voice lookup needs a speech-to-text service supplied by the team; without one, lookup works from the roster.
