Abstract

Objective: The scientific presentations are usually in oral or poster form. Recently evolved methods are video and “e-poster” presentations. Video data and images can be presented in oral presentations but for a limited time. The presentation time is prolonged in poster technique and available for more people but video data can’t be presented. The video presentations and e-posters are uploaded and ready to be selected through a menu in few computers because of the lack of available number of computers for every study. The interactive posters make the presentation of numerous images and video data to be accessible continuously during whole meeting period via its special screen. We aimed to increase sharing of knowledge and make it interactive during a limited period.
Materials and Methods: A 23-inch touch screen with a data processor was used for poster presentation. The special screen was provided for participants to read text, multiple images and video data continuously. The data processor was set to count the number of people to touch screen to read the presented study during the congress period.
Results: The interactive poster was set to be ready in 7th Congress of Surgical Research. The continuous presentation was lasted all through the 3-day Congress Period and 938 clicks were counted by the processor.
Conclusion: During a congress period, by touching the interactive screen it was possible to interchange between the menu topics. The software counting the clicks need to be developed to estimate the number of people evaluating the study as well as duration of interest and which image and video data were evaluated at most.
