1. A method of providing a video stream from a system comprising a main unit and a plurality of sensors, wherein the main unit is configured to receive data from the plurality of sensors, the method comprising the steps of:
transmitting a multi-view video stream from the main unit to a client,
wherein the multi-view video stream represents a multi-view composed of sensor data views from the plurality of sensors in the system;
receiving, in the main unit, a command from the client representing a zoom-in operation;
computing an updated multi-view according to the received command;
evaluating if the updated multi-view includes an area outside a dominating sensor data view in the updated multi-view that is greater than a predetermined threshold,
wherein the dominating sensor data view is the sensor data view that occupies the largest area of the updated multi-view;
if the area outside the dominating sensor data view is greater than the predetermined threshold, transmitting a multi-view video stream representing the updated multi-view;
if the area outside the dominating sensor data view is less than, or equal to, the predetermined threshold, transmitting a single-view video stream representing the dominating sensor data view.
