A camerais arranged to point in a directionthat is angled relative to the normalof the sliding surface. A puckcan be thrown and a computercan detect a moving object within a throwing zone. The computeranalyses whether the detected moving object corresponds to a valid puck. When all pucks are stationary on the sliding surfacethe computercan calculate a score.
