Reinforcement Learning is a promising tool for learning complex policies even infast-moving and object-interactive domains where human teleoperation orhard-coded policies might fail. To effectively reflect this challenging categoryof tasks, we introduce a dynamic, interactive RL testbed based on robot airhockey. By augmenting air hockey with a large family of tasks ranging from easytasks like reaching, to challenging ones like pushing a block by hitting it witha puck, as well as goal-based and human-interactive tasks, our testbed allows avaried assessment of RL capabilities. The robot air hockey testbed also supportssim-to-real transfer with three domains: two simulators of increasing fidelityand a real robot system. Using a dataset of demonstration data gathered throughtwo teleoperation systems: a virtualized control environment, and humanshadowing, we assess the testbed with behavior cloning, offline RL, and RL fromscratch.
