ATL/ConferenceRooms
The following is the list of UMIACS-managed conference rooms in the Atlantic building.
ATL 3100A
This conference room comes equipped with a touch panel that can be used to control the video and audio source(s) and level(s) being used to project to the displays in the room.
Room Capabilities
Our conference rooms have different AV capabilities depending on what equipment each specific room is equipped with (which is generally based on the size of the room). In all rooms, you should at a minimum be able to either plug in your laptop to display to the projector and screen(s), or use the Solstice Mersive Pod found in each room to display wirelessly. In the future we will outline and give sessions on how to effectively use the different functionalities in our conference rooms.

Room PC
Use the wireless keyboard/mouse combo on the desk in the room to use the room PC. Choose the Conference account to sign into, which does not need a password. Please be sure to log off when you are done using the room PC, as the account is fully wiped when you log off, ensuring the next group using the room does not have access to anything you may have signed into.
Laptop
Connect your device to the HDMI cable coming out of the middle of the desk in the room to display your device to the room's display over a wired connection.
Solstice
This option will prompt you to look at the display in the room for instructions on how to display your device(s) to the room's display wirelessly. More specific instructions can be found here. Note that the IP addresses have been blacked out in the below photo for privacy reasons, but will show properly when you are physically in the room.
Shutting Down
Please be sure to touch the "System Power" button and select "Power Off" when you are done using the room to save energy and give the next group using the room a clean slate. This will turn off the display for the room.
