Physical Atari combines the Arcade Learning Environment benchmark with physical components—including the Robotroller, Atari Devbox, a camera, and a reinforcement learning agent—to study real-world challenges like time delays and non-stationarities, which simulations often overlook.
The Atari Devbox is a compact device featuring a Raspberry Pi 5 and a 5-inch Waveshare display, housed in a custom 3D-printable chassis. It connects a DB9 joystick port to the Pi’s GPIO pins to interface with the Atari CX40+.
