The effect of stress exposure training on player performance in League of Legends games

Presented by: Bader Sabtan (PhD candidate) 

League of Legends (LOL) is the most popular, viewed game in Esports, peaking at 4.1 million concurrent viewers and 664,100,000 hours watched in 2021. A constant problem in Esports is that players do not perform to their expected potential when under stress (also known as choking). In the literature, training under stress is a well-known choking intervention that has worked in other domains (e.g., traditional sports and the military).

Grad Seminar: System Design of Mid-/Far- Infrared Photothermoelectric Detectors

Abstract

Self-powered, flexible, and uncooled mid-wavelength infrared (MWIR) detectors based on photothermoelectric (PTE) mechanism are promising in the next-generation wearable Internet of Things (IoT). The photovoltage of PTE detectors is controlled by the Seebeck coefficient and temperature difference under local or global illumination. Previous PTE detectors show a less outstanding performance enhancement, and rare papers report their potential applications.
