Make your room, PC multi-use—without compromising on screen sharing or conferencing.
Many organizations use fixed room PCs to show content like calendars, timetables, or digital signage. But what happens when you also want to use that same PC to host screen sharing or join a video call on the big screen?
With Virtual Airtame for Windows, you don't have to choose. You can keep your regular desktop experience, but have Airtame ready to go the moment you need it.
The Use Case: One PC, Multiple Tasks
Imagine a room PC that:
- Shows a calendar or dashboard all day
- Is plugged into a large screen in a shared space (like a lobby, staff room, or classroom)
- Needs to be ready for wireless screen sharing or video conferencing when users walk in
Virtual Airtame makes this possible—without requiring dedicated hardware or switching devices.
Run Airtame in the Background
When you install Virtual Airtame on Windows, the app can:
- Start automatically when the PC boots up
- Stay minimized to the taskbar and display a floating pairing code
- Be restored whenever someone wants to share their screen or start a call
That means your PC can show a calendar 99% of the time—but in seconds, it becomes a collaboration hub.
How to Set It Up

Start collaborating:
Users can easily start a session just by typing the pairing code in the Airtame browser or desktop app.
