Solstice is a wireless presentation device available in various classrooms and meeting spaces on campus. Solstice enables students, faculty, and staff to connect instantly and share materials wirelessly to a projector or screen. In order to use Solstice, users must connect to the campus Wi-Fi network.

To determine the technology available in your classroom, refer to the Classroom Technology Directory.

With the Mersive Solstice app installed on a laptop, tablet, or mobile device, users can share and control content on the display connected to a Solstice Pod. (For more information on how to download the Solstice app, see Mersive Solstice App.)

Connecting to Solstice

  1. Open the Solstice app, find your room display, then click to connect. If prompted, enter the 4-digit screen key visible on the display.

    The Solstice app, showing a list of available devices.

     

  2. On the Share tab of the Solstice desktop app, you can wirelessly share an unlimited amount of content to the Solstice display using any of the following options.

    1. Desktop: Share a real-time view of your desktop mirrored to the display. The entire desktop, including any open application windows, will be shared in real-time.

    2. App Window: Share a real-time view of only the selected application window to the display. This sharing option allows you to maintain privacy by only sharing a single application instead of everything on your desktop.

    3. Media File: Share media files such as images and videos saved locally on your laptop device to the display. Solstice supports image and video files up to 4K resolution.

When sharing your desktop, the Solstice app window will be hidden by default. Click the Sharing Desktop bar that appears at the top of your screen to show it. You can also click Stop Sharing to quickly stop sharing your desktop.
