RediCam System
|
We have chosen a RediCam
from redics (see specification
below) with its many special features like live streaming in three formats
adapted to the network bandwidth available to the users. A panorama image
is automatically generated once an hour. All of them are available in
an on-line archive.

Central downtown Zurich.
There it replaced the former still picture LiveCam which was in use from January 1997 until September 2001.
