    Abstract: An interactive display system includes a video disposition circuit, a display module, an event detection module, an event processing circuit, and a position determination circuit. The video disposition circuit receives different video frames of video source apparatuses, disposes the video frames in a display frame, and outputs frame disposition information. The display module receives and displays the display frame. The event detection module senses an interactive event in the display frame and generates a detection signal. The event processing circuit generates interactive position information according to the detection signal. The position determination circuit selects a corresponding video source apparatus from the video source apparatuses according to the interactive position information and the frame disposition information, and sends event coordinate data corresponding to the interactive position information to the corresponding video source apparatus.
