Claim:
1. A remote controlled video system, comprising: a video source, comprising a camera, a packet formation block for creating a primary video stream and a control video stream, a coding block to create redundant packets for the primary video stream which allow reconstruction of packets in the primary video stream in the event of packet loss, and a network interface for simultaneously transmitting the primary video stream and the control video stream in real time to different destinations, wherein the primary video stream is transmitted over the internet using an overlay network and is accompanied by the redundant packets and wherein the control video stream is a lower bandwidth signal than the primary video stream; a video target, in communication with the internet, which receives packets from the primary video stream and the redundant packets from said video source, and comprising a coding block to reconstruct the primary video stream from received packets in case of loss of one or more packets; and a computer, different from the video target, in communication with the internet, adapted to receive the control video stream from the video source, and comprising means of controlling the camera of the video source based on the control video stream.
