Structured poster metadata and built search and browsing interactions.
Case study / 03 · Event technology
Designed for the venue, not just the browser.
A dedicated e-poster environment for conference attendees and event staff: discover, preview, present and operate.
01 / THE CHALLENGE
What needed to change.
Research posters needed to be easy to locate from a directory, legible on a physical display and straightforward for staff to operate during a live event.
02 / MY CONTRIBUTION
From requirements to delivery.
Focus the presentation
Developed navigation, full-screen viewing and slideshow operation with minimal interface clutter.
Prepare the event team
Tested the expected display conditions and documented shortcuts and recovery procedures.
03 / DESIGN DECISIONS
Choices made for actual use.
Two discovery methods
Support thumbnail browsing and metadata search rather than relying on one.
Poster-first presentation
Keep controls predictable while allocating maximum space to the poster.
Recovery is a feature
Allow staff to return to the directory and reset display state easily.
