Reactive stick handling exercises in ice hockey aim to enhance quick and automated actions in response to rapidly changing game situations. This Projection-based Augmented reality system provides a platform for a hockey player practicing real-world puck and stick movements via interacting with AI-driven challenges like the defenceman's stick, moving pucks, cones, footballs etc in a game-like environment (check gameplay videos below). The system consists of a computer vision part tracking the real-world puck and a common office projector bouncing computer screen with a virtual stick and other objects on the area (typically floor) where the player can move the real-world puck in response to the virtual challenges. The system is implemented as an app for Android phones or tables or Windows PCs. All exercises can also be played on the mobile phone or computer screen without a projector. Android app can be downloaded from Google Store and Windows built can be downloaded from this site or from GitHub.
