  • A man in South Korea was killed by a robot at work when the robot apparently couldn't differentiate him from the boxes of products it was handling.

  • The incident occurred at a distribution center for agricultural produce in South Gyeongsang province.

  • The robot, which was lifting boxes of bell peppers and placing them on a pallet, seems to have malfunctioned and identified the man as a box.

  • In March, a man in his 50s in South Korea suffered serious injuries after being trapped by a robot while working at an automobile parts plant.
