A new record at an icy height, new products and a place on the podium: That was 2011 for MOBOTIX
Winnweiler/Langmeil, Germany, January 16, 2012. Looking back at the past year, we remember the many milestones we have had at MOBOTIX: We set a new record with the highest webcam in the world on top of Mount Everest. We received first place in one of Germany’s biggest daily newspapers "Die Welt" Top 100 – Small and Medium-Sized Business (SMB) Rankings 2011. We built and moved into a new 6,000-square meter production facility. New management was brought on board. And we launched a brand new product: the T24 IP Video Door Station.
January 2011 – New Executives
Dr. Magnus Ekerot and Dr. Oliver Gabel began working as new members of the Management Board at MOBOTIX AG. Dr. Magnus Ekerot will ensure that the company continues its constant and sustainable growth in his position as Chief Sales Officer (CSO).

June 2011 – Crystal-Clear Allround View With The D14
The MOBOTIX DualDome D14 camera was launched on the market in June. It ensures crystal-clear recording with its 6.2 megapixels. The two 90° lenses even allow a 180° recording, for example, when monitoring an entire parking lot with one camera installed on the wall. And with the digital sensor switching function, the D14 can also be used as a day/night camera since it can be equipped with one color and one black/white module, ensuring the most brilliant color during the day and high sensitivity at night.
August 2011 – "Made in Langmeil" In The New Production Facility
High-resolution video systems from MOBOTIX AG have been produced at the company’s site in Langmeil, a town not far from Kaiserslautern, since August. An average of over 10,000 products are now being built at the new 6,000-square meter facility every month. This is almost 100 percent more than at the beginning of 2009. The production facility provides 3,700 m² of production area. There is also 1,500 m² of storage space, 600 m² of office space and more than 350 m² for common rooms. This offers the ‘Made in Germany’ technology from MOBOTIX plenty of room to grow.
September 2011 – HIGHlight: The World's Highest Webcam On Mount Everest
If the summer in Germany gets too hot for you, cool down over the Internet. Real-time video from the top of Mount Everest is now available for everyone anytime. A new record is set with a MOBOTIX camera that makes this possible: the operation of the world’s highest webcam at temperatures reaching minus 30 degrees Celsius. The EV-K2-CNR scientific committee from Bergamo, Italy, installed an M12 MOBOTIX camera on nearby Kala Patthar (5,675 meters). This camera is currently recording stunning images of the 8,848-meter tall Mount Everest. The video shows Mount Everest as well as the South Col Plateau on the right side of the image. The image is updated every five minutes so that we can even track the movement of the clouds around the peak of the mountain. The webcam is only active during daylight hours (6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Nepalese time, which is from 12:15 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. Central European Time) and is available at http://www.evk2cnr.org/WebCams/PyramidOne/everest-webcam.html.
November 2011 – MOBOTIX Is First In Germany’s SMB Ranking
The management consulting firm Munich Strategy Group evaluated a total of 1,600 businesses from across Germany for their "Top 100 – Small and Medium-Sized Business Rankings 2011." MOBOTIX took first place in the rankings – thanks largely to their impressive growth and consistent expansion strategy. This Top 100 list was compiled in association with one of Germany’s biggest daily newspapers, "Die Welt."
December 2011 – T24 Opens New Doors
Not only Santa stands at the door in December, but also the full version of the MOBOTIX T24 was available just in time for Christmas. Besides the video door intercom, MOBOTIX also released the RFID access control module (Keypad), the Security Door Opener and the two-wire network module (Mx2wire info module). Customers get a powerful, complete video solution for door communication and access control. The support of the new IP telephony standards enables the user to establish a direct connection from the Door Station to any VoIP phone or any computer or smartphone running VoIP software. This means that by setting up the appropriate network infrastructure, the user can establish a video connection, remotely open doors, view stored video messages and review recordings from anywhere in the world.
