On the premise of ensuring the smooth operation of the basic functions of Internet cafes, it will enhance the combination of virtual and reality between cybercafé and the video games, so that customers can get a better entertainment experience.

Chapter 3 will introduce the design guidelines of E-sports themed cybercafés, and the Chapter 4 will use the improvement on specific Internet cafes as the demonstration of the design guidelines.
