Gakken Hills Interdisciplinary Ekiden Competing with Humans, Animals, and Robots

Abstract

The number of robots exiting in human living spaces has increased, and interaction between humans and robots has become an important issue. The purpose of this study is to propose a future society where humans, animals, and robots coexist. We organize relay race, or ekiden in Japanese, where they compete together as runners. The competition rules have been established to ensure that each runner can compete fairly. This paper explains the competition rules and discuss the fairness of the rules
