Mersive Polaris turns any display into a shared workspace. Laptops share from a browser tab, phones from the Mersive app or a native protocol. Side by side, several at once, across any network ye sail.

Polaris fits every display with wireless screen sharin', hybrid meetin's an' digital signage. Polaris Cloud be the single pane that deploys, monitors an' updates all three: every room, every site, one login.
A Polaris room runs the meetin' platform chosen fer that meetin', not one lashed to the room.
Polaris rooms run the vendors' own native clients, so the chat, the layouts an' Copilot be the ones Microsoft an' Zoom shipped, not a re-renderin' of 'em inside another vendor's workspace. Which platform a room runs be chosen per meetin' rather than fixed at install: move from Teams to Zoom between one meetin' an' the next, with no reboot an' no swap. An' with Polaris Host, BY lets the room run an' steer the hybrid meetin' itself, without requirin' a user's device. Which vendors re-render an' which do not, in their own words, on the compare chart.
Platform-agnostic hybrid, savvy →Polaris sails with secure boot on a TAA-compliant supply chain.
ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified, with no nonconformities at the June 2026 surveillance audit. SOC 2 Type 2 attested fer the Polaris cloud, an' the room device assessed by a third-party crew. The July 2026 application assessment returned no critical an' no high-severity findings. 802.1x/EAP-TLS on the wire, all of it written down where yer security crew can read it.
The trust center, matey →Polaris Cloud carries analytics, activation an' fleet management fer the whole fleet.
Mersive Solstice Cloud keeps managin' yer Gen 3 fleet, linked straight from Polaris Cloud: one startin' point while ye migrate.
Explore the cloud, matey →The Polaris workspace holds every share side by side, steered from any seat.
A true composited workspace: compared, annotated, rearranged live. A panel composites on its own glass alone. Polaris composites an' then encodes the whole workspace back out, both to remote shipmates who never joined a call an' to a browser on any device. That be meetin' parity: everyone in the room an' everyone remote be lookin' at the same content at the same time, with no second-class view. That be the line the panel vendors have not crossed.
Why the workspace wins the day →Polaris shares from the browser: no client, no admin rights, no dongles, no fuss.
Guests share in seconds on whatever they walked aboard with, Chromebooks included.
How web-join works, savvy →Polaris shares across VLANs, subnets, buildings an' the open internet without a VPN.
Mersive does the signallin' only: the cloud introduces the two ends, then steps out o' the way an' the media flows peer-to-peer over a direct, encrypted WebRTC connection. Yer content never crosses our cloud. Signallin' be outbound-only TLS on port 443, so guests, other VLANs an' remote devices reach the room with no VPN an' nothin' inbound to open.
See the architecture, matey →The room be the same platform everywhere. What changes be who signs off on it: procurement, a semester timetable, or an auditor.
Fleets measured in hundreds o' rooms, standardized an' rolled out once. One cloud pane fer all of 'em, whatever the buildin'.
Lecture halls, flat classrooms an' shared teachin' space, where a guest lecturer's laptop has to work in the first minute o' the hour.
Where the architecture has to be written down before the room be approved: boot chain, network posture, data paths, update policy.
01Problem
A dongle be a separate hardware purchase, per seat, an' when one goes missin' another unit has to be bought. It be also one more piece o' inventory to stock, maintain an' keep tethered to yer network.
01Answer
Polaris shares from the browser, on the device the person already carries. Nothin' to buy per seat, nothin' to lose overboard, nothin' to keep in a drawer.
Every room on one cloud pane: deploy, monitor, an' update the whole fleet from yer desk. Fewer tickets, fewer truck rolls, a smaller support burden on the crew.
Polaris vs Barco ClickShare →02Problem
Sharin' usually means gettin' the visitor onto the corporate network first: an app to install, an account to create, or a firewall exception to file with IT. The deck o' slides stays on their laptop while the room waits.
02Answer
A guest shares from the browser without joinin' the corporate network: no app, no account, an' no firewall exception to file.
Walk in, open a browser, share. No app, no download, no trainin', guests included.
How guest sharin' works →03Problem
A certified room system hosts one platform's meetin's by design, with one vendor bolted to the room, a commitment to that ecosystem fer the life o' the hardware.
03Answer
Polaris be agnostic about which meetin' system users want to deploy an' switches from one to another in seconds. No reboot, no swap. Link ships aboard Polaris Pro only, while Polaris Host can be added to any Polaris Pro or Essentials room.
One cable to the display, PoE+ power on Pro (Essentials uses the 12V adapter), cloud activation: racked to runnin' fast, quotable from an open spec sheet.
Polaris + Teams Rooms →Hardware based products don't age out; they stop improvin'. A Polaris subscription keeps advancin': updates, security an' new capabilities, with warranty fer as long as ye subscribe. No forklift upgrades, no care contracts.
If a subscription lapses, the room doesn't brick: local wireless sharin' keeps on workin'.
Polaris be one platform, offered in three chassis. All three run the same software an' open the same Mersive workspace. What grows with the hardware be I/O, how many sources can share at once an' what the room can drive.

Polaris begins where native screen mirrorin' ends. AirPlay, Miracast an' Google Cast each hand the display to one device at a time. Polaris puts the Mersive Workspace behind 'em: a shared canvas where several sources sit side by side at once, arrivin' by native cast or straight from a browser. The workspace be not bound to the LAN. A guest sittin' in the room, a shipmate on another VLAN an' someone on the far side o' the world all reach the same room over the internet, with no VPN to stand up, no network to join an' nothin' inbound to open.
The workspace isn't only on the wall. app.mersive.com renders the same workspace fer every seat, in the room or remote, so the folk who aren't standin' in front o' the glass aren't watchin' a lesser view of it. An' every display runs from one cloud, whether that be a single room or a fleet o' thousands. Three layers make it work:
Any display ye already own becomes a Polaris endpoint: a meetin' room display, a classroom screen, a lobby wall.
Every share lands side by side on the display, from a laptop, a phone, or a browser with nothin' installed, an' from any network, not just the room's.
The broker an' the fleet console: it introduces every session, runs every room, an' stays out o' the media path.
Scroll it: the same three steps every share takes, whether the sailor be in the room or on the far side o' the world.
How it works, savvy → Wireless presentation questions, answered →
Most rooms manage BYOD an' stop there: yer laptop hosts, an' the room be a screen. Goin' further usually means givin' somethin' up: a room locked to one meetin' platform, or a bridge that costs ye the native client, so chat, recordin' an' Copilot be no longer the ones Teams or Zoom shipped. Polaris hybrid meetin' technology provides a platform-agnostic solution while keepin' the native client functionality.
At Mersive, we see three models o' hybrid meetin' equipped rooms. BYOD shows the meetin' on the room display but lacks integration with the peripherals. BYOM adds room peripherals to the meetin', lettin' the meetin' wirelessly use devices such as camera bars. BYOM solutions can also host the meetin' on either the user's laptop or on the room device. Polaris Link be Mersive's BYOM solution an' included in Polaris Pro. Our Link solution moves the meetin' onto the Polaris Pro, thereby reducin' laptop power draw an' compute needs.
At Mersive we see a third model o' hybrid meetin' rooms, a fully equipped room system which we call “BY” fer bring yerself. These rooms let a user hold a hybrid meetin' without their own device. Polaris Host be Mersive's “BY” solution an' it be sold as an add-on to either Polaris Pro or Polaris Essentials. With Polaris Host, the room hosts an' be controlled from the device, so nobody has to bring a machine at all.
Neither Polaris Link nor Polaris Host locks the room down to one VTC platform. The platform be chosen per meetin', every client be the vendor's own, an' changin' from one to another takes seconds an' no reboot.
Polaris Cloud carries analytics, activation an' conference room management fer the whole fleet. One login deploys, monitors an' updates every room on every site: templates by room type, staged firmware, health alerts.
Polaris Cloud panel: the home dashboard. Solstice Cloud panel: the Deployment view. Both be product screenshots with sample data.
Conference room management stops bein' a buildin'-by-buildin' job. One login deploys, monitors an' updates the whole fleet from yer desk: templates by room type, so a huddle room an' a lecture hall each land configured the way that kind o' room should be, firmware staged over a weekend instead o' pushed on a Tuesday mornin', an' health alerts that reach ye before the first meetin' o' the day finds the dead display. Fewer tickets, fewer truck rolls, an' a support burden that stops growin' every time somebody adds a room.
None of it waits fer a migration to finish. Mersive Solstice Cloud goes on runnin' yer Gen 3 fleet exactly as it does today an' be linked straight from Polaris Cloud, so the two sit side by side an' rooms move across when the budget says so rather than when the software insists. One startin' point, one login, an' no weekend where half the buildings be unmanaged.
Corporate digital signage be usually a second system: another platform, another license, another vendor to hail when the lobby screen goes dark. Here it be the platform the meetin' rooms already run. The same Polaris Cloud login runs both.
The meetin' display ye already own, before an' after the meetin' ends. Same pod, same login.
A dedicated screen in a lobby, a hallway or a cafeteria be a deployment like any other. The difference be what happens to the displays ye already bought: a meetin' display becomes a signage screen the moment nobody be sharin', which across a workin' week be most o' the time it be switched on. Rooms that used to sit dark between bookin's publish instead.
Content be dynamic an' event-driven, an' it be cached on the device, so a screen keeps publishin' through a network outage rather than goin' to a blue holdin' slide in front o' everybody in the lobby. Every panel be addressed from the same Polaris Cloud login as every room, so there be no second CMS to learn an' no separate fleet to keep track of. Signage be included rather than licensed on its own: no second fleet o' players, no second license, no second vendor.
Five ways to feed it, one cloud to publish it, any chassis to run it. A meetin' display becomes a signage screen the moment nobody be sharin'.
Proof in the field: one hospitality customer's headquarters deployment took 350 units, most of 'em drivin' signage.
