As the esports sector continues to grow, developing technologies are constantly being utilised in order to add more value to fans. EsportsBattle is no different, with the esports platform introducing heart monitors to its ‘cyber football’ streams.
Equipped with Bluetooth and ANT, these monitors will provide data on competitors’ heart rates. This in turn is expected to engage viewers even more.
According to EsportsBattle, the launch of the new feature will look to further increase the popularity of cyber football streams. The esports platform is projecting a 15 percent increase in views of live streams and a 20 percent rise in audience retention on streams.
