TECHNOLOGY

OUTRACE is an installation that consists of 6 independent systems coordinated by one KWTC CONTROLLER. A message is processed every 60 seconds. The system is capable of handling over 10.000 messages in a week. 1KW WEB SERVER is the entry point for the end user. Each video message is encoded at 8 frames per second, at a resolution of 1280x850 and uploaded to outrace.org and Youtube.
