Abstract (arXiv)

We present ShuttleEnv, an interactive and data-driven simulation environment for badminton, designed to support reinforcement learning and strategic behavior analysis in fast-paced adversarial sports. The environment is grounded in elite-player match data and employs explicit probabilistic models to simulate rally-level dynamics, enabling realistic and interpretable agent-opponent interactions without relying on physics-based simulation. In this demonstration, we showcase multiple trained agents within ShuttleEnv and provide live, step-by-step visualization of badminton rallies, allowing attendees to explore different play styles, observe emergent strategies, and interactively analyze decision-making behaviors. ShuttleEnv serves as a reusable platform for research, visualization, and demonstration of intelligent agents in sports AI.
