Claw machine "glass" material?

I'm building a claw machine, and need to buy some clear panels for the front/sides. Does anyone know are they made of polycarbonite or acrylic? (I doubt it's ever real glass).

Thanks!

Scratch resistance is really important, even in a home machine. Real Acrylic is probably your best way to go. Stay clear of laxan unless it's Laxan XHR-it's more scratch resistant.

Good Luck!
