According to South Korea’s news agency Yonhap, at the time of the accident, the employee was checking the robot’s sensor operation. Then the robot made a mistake. The robot’s arms mistook the employee for a box. It grabbed him very tightly and threw him towards the automatic panel.
The employee’s face and chest were badly crushed by the robot. The employee was immediately taken to the hospital. He was declared dead there. Media Reports According to him, the robot was being tested. Earlier also a fault was detected in the robot’s sensor. Due to this the test was postponed. When the robot was tested again after two days, the accident happened.
The local police has registered a case and started investigation. After the detailed report comes, it will be known what was the underlying cause of the accident. This is not the first incident of an accident caused by a robot. Many such cases have come to light so far, in which humans had to suffer due to robots.
Who is responsible for the incident in South Korea is a big topic of debate. There is no legal system in the world for such cases. Whether action should be taken against the robot or its manufacturer is a big question. Currently, the Korean police have filed a case against the safety manager of the site. Further steps will be taken after investigation.
