CF InFlight has chosen LynxOS as the new operating system for its Emmy award-winning Skycam, which will provide smoother camera movement at Super Bowl XXXVII. The Skycam is a broadcast-quality robotic camera suspended from a cable-driven computerized transport system and has been used in various sporting events. CF InFlight was able to port the application to LynxOS within 5 days, thanks to LynxWorks' interoperability with Linux and POSIX conformance. The press release highlights the benefits of LynxOS, such as its real-time determinism and open programming environment.
