Roundshot Weathercam - First Professional Weather Station with High Resolution 360degrees Digital Images (up to 25 Million Pixel) for the Internet
LUSTDORF, Switzerland, May 4/
Seitz Phototechnik of Switzerland introduces the Roundshot Weathercam - the first 360degrees panorama system worldwide combining up-to-date weather data with professional image quality. With one simple click the website visitor gets a full overview: an animated panorama of up to 360degrees and simultaneously current readings of temperature, wind chill, humidity, rain, wind velocity and direction as well as air pressure. Real-time graphics give a lively impression of how the weather has changed over the last 24 hours, 7 days, 1 month or the entire year.
The Roundshot Livecam allows very high image quality, inviting the website visitor to explore details in the image. Contrary to traditional webcams that use low resolution video capture the Roundshot camera is based on digital photo technology. That is how a resolution of up to 25 million pixels can be achieved, which is 20x higher than for a standard video webcam.
The Roundshot Weathercam is a complete system with camera, weather-proof casing, weather station, web server and all programs. The system works fully automatic and maintenance is limited. If required image parameters can be individually adjusted, for example, to hide and pixelate private areas for privacy.
It has some far-reaching applications, especially in tourism (winter/summer), weather stations (meteo), corporate websites (marketing), airports and air fields, cities (marketing), construction sites and private residences.
The price of the Roundshot Weathercam system is 15,900 Swiss Francs
(10'379 Euro). The Livecam without weather station costs 13,200 Swiss Francs
(8'616 Euro).
In business for over 50 years, Seitz Phototechnik AG is a market leader for 360degrees panoramic equipment and focuses on the high-end professional market.
