“…Research on e-sport players showed that RT is affected by game playing time. If gamers play longer, the better RT they can have [27]. It is due to the speed of coding visual information into visual short-term memory, and the improvement does seem to depend on the time devoted to gaming [28].…”

(1) Background: Many young adults spend their time playing games and watching television. This type of spending time should be used effectively, so it’s worth adding exercise and immersion to them. Bearing in mind that the video games and physical exercise also improve postural stability, motor time (MT) and reaction time (RT), it is worth reaching for new technologies with immersion that are widely available and can be used, for example, as a remote intervention. This study aimed to compare the effects of a low vs. high-immersive exercise environment on postural stability, RT and MT in young adults. (2) Methods: Ninety-three participants were randomly divided into a control group (CG; n = 48) and experimental group (EG; n = 45). The CG exercised according to the Tabata self-made video display on a television set, and the EG exercised according to the Audio Trip exergame. In addition to the postural stability, RT and MT, we monitored the heart rate, breath rate and energy expenditure for safety reasons and to note any differences. (3) Results: Significant differences were observed for both groups in RT (F(2.182) = 3.14, p = 0.046, η2 = 0.03) and MT (F(2.182) = 3.07, p = 0.049, η2 = 0.03) and in postural stability in eyes closed (EC): F(2.182) = 3.66, p = 0.028, η2 = 0.04 and eyes open in one leg (EO-OL): F(2.182) = 5.814, p = 0.04, η2 = 0.07. (4) Conclusions: The inclusion of a higher immersion produces greater improvements in RT, MT. Additionally, after a low-immersive exercise environment, participants have higher center of pressure (COP) path length values with EC and EO-OL tests, which testifies to less postural stability. Regarding COP trajectory, a smaller area surface means better performance for high-immersive participants after 30 min of exercise.

Background: E-sports require athletes to have high-speed reflexes and excellent memory skills. Whereas a single session of aerobic exercise has been shown to improve cognitive function, this paper aims is to investigate the effects of acute moderate-intensity aerobic exercise on the cognitive function of e-sports players and its time-course characteristics. Methods: Thirty-four E-athletes were divided into 2 groups according to a random number table method, and 2 trials in a quiet physical fitness gym. The duration of each trial was approximately 1 hour. In the first trial: exercise group (64–76% of maximum heart rate for 30 minutes power cycling) and control group, cognitive function was tested, and results were automatically recorded before, immediately after, and 30 minutes after exercise using the human benchmark website (https://humanbenchmark.com). The second trial crossed and swapped the interventions of the 2 groups, and the other test protocols were the same as the first. Results: In both trials, the exercise intervention group showed significant improvements in speed accuracy (P < .001, Cohen’s d = 1.406, 95% CI: 0.717–2.072; P = .005, Cohen’s d = 0.782, 95% CI: 0.227–1.319), visual memory (P < .001, Cohen’s d = 1.416, 95% CI: 0.725–2.086; P = .015, Cohen’s d = 0.662, 95% CI: 0.127–1.181), and reaction time (P < .001, Cohen’s d = 1.265, 95% CI: 0.610–1.898; P<.001, Cohen’s d = 0.979, 95% CI: 0.386–1.551) immediately after exercise compared to baseline. The exercise intervention group also showed significant improvement in speed accuracy 30 minutes after exercise compared to baseline (P = .002 Cohen’s d = 0.869, 95% CI: 0.298–1.421; P = .009, Cohen’s d = 0.722, 95% CI: 0.177–1.249). In the first trial, the exercise intervention group showed significant improvements in visual memory and reaction time immediately after exercise compared to the control group (P = .013, Cohen’s d = 0.904, 95% CI: 0.190–1.605; P = .027, Cohen’s d = 0.796, 95% CI: 0.090–1.490). The exercise intervention group also showed significant improvement in reaction time 30 minutes after exercise compared to baseline (P = .009, Cohen’s d = 0.719, 95% CI: 0.174–1.246). There was no effect of exercise on sequence memory or the chimp test in both trials (P > .05). Sequence effect analysis showed no influence on the order of the exercise intervention in both trials (P = .912; P = .111; P = .226). Conclusion: Acute moderate-intensity aerobic exercise significantly enhanced the speed accuracy, visual reaction time, and instantaneous memory of eSports players, and the effect could be extended up to 30 minutes after exercise.

“…E-sports usually means using electronic equipment as a carrier to participate in games developed by various game developers, compete with each other, and achieve projects similar to traditional competitive competitions such as Go and badminton [1]. In this way, e-sports refers to the use of various electronic devices, such as mobile phones, iPads, PCs, etc., as sports equipment, to carry out mental, physical and other confrontation sports between players [2]. In this sport, if it is a team event, it can greatly cultivate team spirit, or if it is an individual event, it can continuously improve the athletes' various willpower and coordination and control capabilities [3].…”

To improve the analysis effect of e-sports competitions, this paper studies the intelligent analysis methods of e-sports, compares the advantages and disadvantages of various multi-classification methods, and innovatively designs a two-layer SVM classifier structure for four types of motor imagery EEG signals. Moreover, this paper uses the competition data set to test the classification accuracy of the designed double-layer SVM classifier structure and compares it with the DAG-SVM multi-classification method. The research results show that the e-sports competition analysis system based on the intelligent analysis system proposed in this paper has a good e-sports competition analysis effect, and has a good effect in e-sports competition prediction.
