This is probably the first time the robot has killed people! This surprising incident happened on Monday, June 29, in a factory of the German car manufacturer Volkswagen. In that incident, a 22-year-old man was killed by the robot.
Volkswagen spokesman Heiko Hillwig told the media that the accident happened Monday at the Bountal plant, 62 miles from Frankfurt. The 22-year-old worker was working to set up a stationery robot. On the day of the incident, the worker was setting up a stationery robot (cannot move but able to perform specific programmed tasks). While working, the robot suddenly grabs him and crushes him with a metal container.
He said, it is believed that this incident could happen due to human error rather than the robot's problem in the initial state. The robot performs various tasks in the vehicle assembly process. These tasks are pre-programmed. This robot only works to pick up car parts and give them different shapes within a certain area of the plant.
German news agency DPA said lawyers were considering whether to file a case in the case. But against whom to file a complaint? That's the thing to think about.
