MechaSafari’s proposed human-versus-machine forest
MechaSafari is developing a wilderness game where small teams evade autonomous machines while completing objectives, with the encounters also intended to test robotics in the real world.
- For
- Robotics teams and adventurous participants
- Worth noticing
- The proposed rules keep machines inside a mapped, fenced property, with a supervising operator and hard stop for each machine.
Field notes
The first proposed scenario, MS-001, sets four participants against multiple machines for a 90-minute objective. The page describes a mapped, fenced property, machine geofencing, human supervisors with hard stops, marshals, and medical cover as planned operating conditions. It also says the prototype records are illustrative and that no encounters have taken place, so the robotics benchmarks and participant-discovery process remain intentions rather than demonstrated results.
