Education is a highly interesting field for Augmented Reality (AR) applications allowing for tangible experimentation and increased immersion. In this paper we present our efforts on adding an AR visualization on a physics airtable experiment used for the understanding of object motion and collisions on a nearly frictionless surface. Using AR, information such as the objects velocity, angular velocity and kinetic energy can be overlayed over the objects in real-time to give direct understanding of physics motion laws. We present the implementation of two versions of such an AR system, using an HMD and a projector respectively, and discuss the development challenges and advantages/disadvantages of each one.
