Consider adding a QR code to your research poster if you have additional data or information that cannot be included on the poster due to size constraints. A QR code can link to your complete list of references, additional graphs/charts/tables, a website, a video, a full research paper, or any other items that informed your research. QR codes are effective means of data visualization for research posters because they allow you to include the most important data items on your poster, but include supplemental data without visually overwhelming your poster.
