Case Study: ETH Zurich launches interactive multichannel Cybathlon livestream and automated publishing in 8 weeks with Pimcore

A multichannel livestreaming platform for the CYBATHLON at ETH Zurich

ETH Zurich’s Cybathlon needed a fast, interactive multichannel platform to replace an in-person event lost to COVID-19. Working on the client’s servers under a two-month deadline, the team ran three hyper-agile sprints to design an urban-style UI, manage parallel development and content acquisition, and meet strict technical and conceptual requirements.

In partnership with Yoveo and using Pimcore, w-vision delivered a livestreaming platform that tied production to the user interface, added server-based live reactions, automated video workflows via Vimeo, and aggregated 250+ social sources. Role-based downloads, integrated team registration/approval, and automated publishing enabled a successful rollout in eight weeks, delivering live results, a video center, and strong audience interaction.
