The human journey doesn’t end with automation; in fact, it’s leading us into our next significant chapter. With the power of Live Streaming, Skyline Robotics is at the forefront of this evolution, pioneering automated window cleaning as the future of facade maintenance by using IP camera streaming.
In this blog post, we’ll explore how they harnessed the power of IP cameras and live streaming to provide real-time monitoring and control of their robotic cleaning systems.
Who is Skyline Robotics?
Skyline Robotics is pioneering the future of facade maintenance with OZMO, their advanced window-cleaning robot. By combining artificial intelligence, machine learning, live streaming and computer vision, OZMO revolutionizes the cleaning process, offering unprecedented efficiency and safety. With a mission to modernize and elevate the facade cleaning industry, Skyline Robotics ensures that its innovative solutions meet the highest standards of performance and reliability.
What was their challenge?
They developed an autonomous robotics system for high-rise facade maintenance. To ensure success, they needed to integrate multiple IP camera feeds into their web application with extremely low latency while preserving the cameras’ original high quality through live streaming, which is crucial for the safety of their robotic operations.
Why did they choose Ant Media Server?
After working with a competitor for over a year, we found their solution too taxing on our system and their interface for interacting with the multimedia server was poor. After reviewing several options, we chose Ant Media due to their superb customer service, user-friendly interface, and well-documented SDK. They were also the only company offering a perpetual license.
PROBLEM
- Hard-to-use interface
- No perpetual license is available
- Low video streaming performance
SOLUTION
- Well documented SDK
- Great customer service
- User-friendly interface
How did they benefit from the Ant Media Server?
The low latency WebRTC provided by Ant Media worked very well for our use case, allowing us to achieve a ip camera stream with less than 500ms delay. Additionally, the server interface is extremely easy to use and configure, even for non-technical users of our systems.
They also noted that they achieved a maximum latency of 500ms while displaying five simultaneous IP camera streams in a web browser.

What are their aspirations moving forward?
They aim to improve their camera feed streaming by streaming to an external Ant Media server to enable remote viewing of their operations.
In conclusion
Leveraging Skyline Robotics’s expertise in smart facade cleaning alongside Ant Media’s cutting-edge technology in real-time video streaming, this partnership aims to deliver innovative and seamless experiences for clients across various industries. We proceed our way together with our users to democratize streaming and be the WordPress of streaming.
Along with Skyline Robotics, we’ve had the pleasure of sharing numerous other case studies from our partners who have utilized Ant Media Server, including Fox, who use it for uninterrupted broadcasting experience, Avid – for truly immersive interactions; and Mojohost trusted us with their clients for streaming services.
