Sumario:The purpose of this study wasto develop exercises utilizing optical stimulation technology(ST)and determine their impact on some brain signals (EEG), the timeof motor responses, and the precision of jumping shots among young basketball players(YBP). By creating one experimental group with a sample of twelve players from the participating clubs in Baghdad, the experimental approach was used. They were chosen at random from their home community with a percentage of 16.6% for the 2020–2021 athletic season.The researcher used lights with a thickness of 0.5cm that are powered by daytime LED technologies. They runon electricity, and the remote controls them from a distance. They weredistributed in the basketball scoring area on the board at specific times. The wires were safely connected, and they didnot obstruct the balls path in any way. They wereput in place on the field to speed up response times. As a result, the exercises usedvision to stimulate the brain. These exercises wereperformed to their maximum potential using high-intensity interval training, which was carried out for eight weeks in a row, averaging three units per training week, and whose intensity ranged between 85% to 95%of the motor response time(MRT).In conclusion, light STexercises have a positive role in improving the level of low, medium, and high brain (beta) frequencies, which helps to activate brain work in the motor side of YBPand helps them to improve MRTand the accuracy of shooting from the perimeter.
