“…Generally speaking, the development of e-sports is not yet mature, and the development of e-sports is still in its infancy [ 1 ], which is manifested in many aspects: the public recognition is not enough, there are few related large-scale events, there is no professional-scale operation, there is less research in this area, and so on [ 2 ]. Especially on college campuses, although students have more time for self-discipline than before, the school does not pay enough attention to e-sports, and there is no relatively formal organization and management of participants, which has led to many human resources problems waste [ 3 ].…”

In order to improve the effect of e-sports training, this paper combines the intelligent gesture recognition technology to construct an e-sports training system and judges the training effect of players through the recognition of players’ gestures. Moreover, this paper studies the commonly used feature extraction algorithms and proposes an improved SLC-Harris feature extraction algorithm, and the feasibility of this algorithm is verified by the experimental results on the EUROC data set. In addition, this paper uses the KLT optical flow algorithm to track the extracted feature points and calculates the pure visual pose through epipolar geometry, triangulation, and PnP algorithms. The experimental research results show that the electronic economic training system based on intelligent gesture recognition proposed in this paper has certain effects.

“…Focusing on runners and variables affecting decision-making during the pandemic, Maditinos et al (2020) found the following key factors affecting participation in running events during the pandemic: participants' distance from, and available transportation to the race location, the number of participants, compliance with precautions, and organizers' plans for contingencies. Martins, Moraes, & Marchi Júnior (2021) explored how COVID-19 impacted school sport, analyzing how the authorities responded to its effects concluding that this had been widely affected by cancellations caused by difficulties in the implementation of COVID-19 regulations.…”

COVID-19 has affected sport events, marathons, and trail-running events. Thus, it has become essential to understand the attitudes and intentions of runners, regarding their participation in the races. Therefore, this study aims to examine the changes in runners’ attitudes relating to their decision whether to participate in races, and changes in their habits because of the pandemic. Employing a qualitative research design, data were collected from 12 interviewees in Ephesus Ultra Marathon Trail Race, and by using participatory observation method. The results revealed that the participants’ motivations for participating in race events during the pandemic were socialization, healthy living, realizing their goals, and maintaining friendships. Despite the risks, the participants did not hesitate to participate in events for their belief in athlete immunity, confidence in individual precautions, their respect for the rules and the absence of fear. However, the decrease in the number of activities was found to create dissatisfaction, as it limited socialization.

For example, Martins et al (2022) indicate the growing prominence of e-sports. Thus, the COVID-19 pandemic has changed considerably how people view and engage in sports activities.…”

The Covid19 Pandemic Impacts of the Coronavirus on Sport and Society

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The Coronavirus 2019 , is an infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. It has had and continues to have devastating impacts on almost every aspect of life globally. The sports sector, in particular, being closely linked to travel and tourism, has experienced devastating impacts given that most of the world's global (and domestic) travel had come to a halt with travel bans, shutdowns, lockdowns and various other forms of travel restrictions. Travel had almost come to a standstill globally with cancellation of flights and events/ activities (Hoque et al. 2020).Chinazzi et al. (2020) and Hoque et al. (2020) assert that travel restrictions and social distancing were imposed and continue to be enforced globally primarily to curb and stop the spread of the virus, which remains a socio-economic and health threat. Sectors such as the sport industry are particularly impacted because they are associated with social gatherings in terms of consuming and participating in events and activities (Glebova et al. 2022;Parnell et al. 2020). Several sporting events and activities were and continue to be cancelled or postponed/ suspended, include-ing major sports events (the most notable being the 2020 Tokyo Summer Olympics Games) as well as sport exhibitions and conferences.Gough (2020: 1) states that the COVID-19 pandemic had 'wreaked havoc to the sporting calendar'. It is also important to note that training was severely disrupted, that substantially impacts on athletes at different levels, as shown by Wiltshire et al. (2022) in relation to COVID-19 impacts on the economic viability sports sector and athletic performance. They caution that
