Scientific paper

Despite many efforts in rapid follow-up optical observations of GRBs, optical real-time data as well as pre-burst data are still rarely available. We report on a system of 11 Czech Stations of the EN (European Fireball Network) providing extended sky monitoring. The stations are equipped with fish-eye lenses imaging the whole visible sky hemisphere on photographic emulsion. This allows a large fraction of GRBs to be observed (so far more than 90) with limiting magnitudes between 7 and 11 at times before, during, and after gamma-ray triggers.
