Hockey sticks breaking are a major issue through cost and performance at the amateur and national level. Hockey Robotics addresses this issue by developing a robot that is used to test out new sticks and their technologies. One key point addressed by Chief Scientist, John McPhee is to prevent the initial chip or crack because the stick will last longer. Tristan Lehari, Mechanical Structure and Design Lead stated that the project was first started by phD students working with motion tracking and hockey players.
