Oral sessions use Zoom meeting. Prepare some slide for screen share in your presentation.
Poster Session
■ Preparation for speakers in poster sessions
Please prepare your slides for short presentation (max. 10 pages). Export your slides as images (png or jpg) in advance and upload them in your EventIn table as below.
■ About ICETC2021 EventIn Space
The ICETC2021 EventIn space is composed of four floors corresponding to four-poster sessions (Poster 1-4), and a Help Desk floor. In the poster session floors, each poster presentation is assigned a dedicated table (like a Zoom breakout room). The poster presenters will give their short presentations to the audience visiting their tables.
There are two modes for presentation; talk mode (default) and exhibition mode. In talk mode, the poster presenter (table host) shares their screen, and the audience sees the same shared screen. In exhibition mode, each audience member can view different images uploaded in advance by the table host. The table hosts can switch modes at any time.
Each poster session will last 90 minutes, and it is up to the poster presenters how to use the session time and modes. However, when you leave your table in the session (e.g., to visit other tables), you should change the mode to exhibition mode so that the visiting audience can view your presentation material. It is recommended that you stay at your table for the last 30 minutes of the session when the parallel oral sessions are finished, and the coffee break is held.
■ Rehearsal
We will have the rehearsals on the following dates and times. Please join either of them and check if you can make poster presentation at your table. Staffs are in the Help Desk Floor.
11/29 13:30-15:00
11/30 13:30-15:00
By simultaneously logging in as a participant from the URL below, you can check the screen sharing from the audience's point of view.

Click the edit button () and upload your exported slide images through “Exhibition Contents” tab and “+ Add images” button. Note that, slide files (pdf or pptx) cannot be uploaded but only images (jpg or png) can. Thus, slides should be exported as images.

5. Give your presentation
Tables are in the talk mode by default.
You can share your slides and talk to the audience visiting your table, like a Zoom breakout room, through the “share screen” button at the bottom of the screen.
Those buttons automatically appear when the mouse cursor moves to the bottom of the screen (*).
You can also switch to exhibition mode (**) through the configuration (three dots) button. Then audience can view the uploaded images and you can confirm who is watching which image. You must change to exhibition mode when you leave your table in the session.
*: Mac users must allow the browser to record the screen through “System Preference (システム環境設定)” -> “Security & Privacy (セキュリティとプライバシー)” -> “Screen Recording (画面収録)”.
**: You can also switch to presentation mode, but it is like a webinar style (audience cannot talk) and does not fit to the poster session.
