Just to quickly highlight though: this year’s digital posters are in fact a “first”; i.e., don’t confuse them with the electronic posters (e-posters) from the previous years. E-posters used to be presented on quite small computer screens, and as such a single “page” (slide) was almost always impossible. This year’s digital posters lean much more towards the facilities presenters had for power-pitch posters, i.e. the 1 hour sessions following the power pitch sessions: much larger screens that you stand in front in a more similar fashion (almost) as a traditional poster. Even then though, all of these I have ever attended also made use of a full slide deck.
Shortly though, I think instructions will be available or even sent out on each specific presentation type. Those would probably also detail the exact size these screens will be. The idea should be though that they are “rather large”; because the aim is to more or less replace the experience of the traditional (paper) posters.
All that aside; it’ll be interesting to see how it works out. It’s a controversial change (ditching paper posters for these digital ones)… lots of people immediately showed quite a bit of scepticism on Twitter an the like… wait an see.
