MERLIC RTE and MERLIC Frontend are available on PC-based and Arm-based Linux 5.4 or newer systems
Developing the MVApp is still done on a Windows system with the MERLIC Creator. The application can then be used with MERLIC RTE and MERLIC Frontend on the Linux system. Cameras can be set up remotely with the help of MERLIC RTE Setup.
