Even though the energy level statistics for quantum billiards in the semi-classical counterparts to classical billiard systems share universal properties, the actual behavior of the trajectories in the two systems is substantially different (under Schrödinger evolution Hilbert space vectors never diverge from one another).
One can produce quantum billiards by using Schrödinger's equation to describe particles reflecting off the boundaries (where one specifies that the wave function for the particles is zero at a boundary), or one can start with the equations describe a classical billiard and quantize the observables (e.g., position and momentum) yielding quantized billiards.
