How To Activate Your Mersive Solstice?

With all this information at hand the Solstice may sound like a great fit for your small, medium or large meeting room. When getting your Solstice you’ll need to activate your Pod before you jump into sharing. To do this you will need to install the Solstice dashboard and import your Solstice Pod. With the Solstice Dashboard downloaded, you can then start to configure your Pod. All you have to do is plug a USB mouse and keyboard into the Pod. That is one way to complete the import but, Mersive themselves recommend using the Dashboard to configure your Pods. As it will give you a more streamline deployment and management.

If you take Mersive’s advice and configure with the Solstice Dashboard. Then your Pods and your Windows computer need to be on the same network. This will make sure that the configuration will be completed. The quickest and the most easiest way to get your Pod on the same network is by using an ethernet cable. Just simply plug the ethernet cable into the Pod and the network should automatically connect. So if you are using multiple Pods in a large boardroom, the ethernet connection route will be the best way for you to configure your Pods quickly.

However, if you are reading this and thinking about how you cant remember the last time you saw the ethernet cable you had. Then not to worry. You can also configure your Pod’s wirelessly. Just simply use the Pod’s local configuration panel, then once the configuration is all done you can then import the Pod’s into the Solstice dashboard. 

Cloud Based Management 

Managing and running multiple devices can be tricky. Especially if you have multiple offices around the country, or world, that you cant always travel to if there’s a problem. Introducing the Solstice Cloud, a cloud based management platform for you to manage your Solstice Pods. No matter where you are. Simply log your Pods into your Solstice cloud account and enjoy the freedom of device management from the comfort of your home.

Imagine a situation where your office in London has a problem with their Solstice Pod, and your all the way up north at your home. In most cases, the device would have to be left for a few hours until you arrived. Or you would have to navigate your way through the customer support line trying to retell the information to your employees in the London office. With your free Solstice Cloud account you can sort out any problems with the Pod, without having to travel to the location of the Pod. Furthermore, you can also set up email alerts that alert you about any problems with your Pod. Letting you sort out the problem, before the problem has even started. Not only can you manage any problems with the Solstice Pod but you can manage and set up your digital signage feeds.

Schedule Pod updates with the Cloud so that the device is always up to date and running smoothly. Scheduling them for your off hour times so the Pod doesn’t start updating in the middle of your meeting. 

Where Can Mersive Solstice Work?

The Mersive Solstice isn’t just for corporate use. Yes the device can do wonders for your meeting rooms but the device spans further to accommodate other potential users. It may have not been a first thought when reading about the Mersive Solstice, but this sharing device is perfect for education. If you think about it, education is all about sharing. Sharing information and knowledge to others, whether you are giving that information to your students or to your fellow classmates.

Education

So image using the Mersive Solstice in a university lecture hall. As the lecture, its important for all of you students in the room to view your lesson content easily. This normally means standing at your desk on the stage, controlling your content from your plugged in laptop. Although this is good and has obviously worked for many years, it can be a bit boring for your students. Not really capturing their attention as you just stand in the same spot for an hour, clicking the next slide button on your laptop.

With the Mersive Solstice installed, you could move around the stage, move into your audience while you share the lesson content from an iPad – wirelessly. Not only will this make your life, as a lecturer much simpler, with you just having to walk in and connect to the Solstice in just a few seconds. But can make your lessons more engaging and fun for your students. Furthermore, the lecturer isn’t the only one who could share to the big screen. As the Mersive Solstice can accompany multiple connections in your meeting room, it can do the just same in your lecture hall.

With moderation capabilities, multiple people can share simultaneously to the big screen and the lecturer has the peace of mind that you are sharing what is appropriate as they can turn on the moderation capabilities. This allows more of a relationship between students and teachers, it brings down that barrier of students always been talked at. With the simultaneous sharing, the teacher and the students can communicate together through what they are sharing. Letting a conversation form, instead of the student being talked to.

 

Solstice Active Learning

To provide you the best experience during a lesson, Mersive Solstice Active Learning is the software-based solution for multi-screen rooms. Perfect for classrooms, lecture halls and training centres. With this software you can share your presenting screen and students screens to one another – with just a tap of a button or drag.

No matter if a team has three people with three screens or two people with two screens, the one team can basically share the same screen at once.

Plus if you want your teams to collaborate and evaluate their work together, you can share one team screen to another team screen. Just drag one virtual team on the App to another – its as simple as that, anyone can do it.

But the remote students won’t take up your whole Solstice Pod, their video call will run alongside any content you are sharing. Splitting up your room display to show the students actually in the classroom, the remote students and anything the teacher has shared. So if a few students decide to work from home one day, it won’t interfere with your lesson at all. Solstice can seamlessly integrate with Zoom, Teams and Webex video conferencing.
