Solstice 3.1 Coming Soon!

Solstice version 3.1 is scheduled for release in late October and includes significant new integration capabilities designed to leverage and enhance existing conferencing and scheduling systems to support new levels of collaboration. Here’s a look at what’s coming in the 3.1 release.

Integration with Collaboration Boards and VTC Room Systems

Solstice version 3.1 dramatically expands the ability to integrate Solstice with existing collaboration boards/hubs and VTC room systems. By simply connecting the Solstice Pod via HDMI to your Windows Surface Hub®, Cisco Spark Board®, Logitech SmartDock®, or Cisco Telepresence SX Series® system, users can share multiple content streams into their Skype for Business® or other video teleconferencing (VTC) sessions to further improve collaboration and decision making.

This new capability takes a best-of-both-worlds approach by leveraging your existing VTC infrastructure and the Solstice Pod’s multi-threaded content sharing capabilities. The result is a completely integrated audio, video, and content solution for meetings that involve participants inside and/or outside of your organization.

Room Scheduling

The Solstice 3.1 release also adds the ability to display a room schedule on the Solstice welcome screen by connecting a Microsoft Exchange calendar or a Microsoft Office365 account. The welcome screen will also show ‘available’ and ‘in use’ statuses based on the calendar.

New Solstice Welcome Screen

In addition to displaying a room schedule, the 3.1 welcome screen includes a new layout, rotating background images, and animated elements that react to user actions like connection requests.

New OpenControl API Capabilities

Also included in the Solstice 3.1 release is a range of new API controls, including API support for both room scheduling and Solstice Discovery Service (SDS). Full details about the new API capabilities will be available at the time of release.

To see how the VTC room systems integration works and learn about the other features and capabilities coming in the Solstice 3.1 release, join our Solstice 3.1 webinar next Wednesday, October 4. The 3.1 release is scheduled for late October.
