is a software-enabled active routing solution for multi-team learning environments that allows educators to control and share content to engage with students. The application provides a simple learning space design tool, drag-and-drop video sharing between screens, as well as an instant messaging system that can broadcast information to each display on demand.
can be enabled on Solstice Gen3 Pods running software version 4.5 or later with a current subscription. Additionally, each designer and facilitator must have a Solstice Cloud account to virtually design rooms and route video in real time using the free app.
Note
Each video routing connection is counted towards the licensed number of users for the Pod. For example, Solstice Pods with Small Group Edition licensing allows up to four total connections to it, including those from active video routing. For Solstice Pods with Unlimited user licensing, the maximum number of video routing connections is 8; however, an unlimited amount of Solstice users can connect and share to that individual Pod.

Active Learning API

Active Routing is infrastructure that supports products in a variety of areas such as Active Learning, Multiroom Sharing, and other potential markets that require the duplication of content or collaboration across multiple screens or conference rooms that reside in a single local-area network (LAN).
