The incident occurred when the man, a robotics company employee in his 40s, was inspecting the robot.
The robotic arm, confusing the man for a box of vegetables, grabbed him and pushed his body against the conveyer belt, crushing his face and chest, South Korean news agency Yonhap said.
He was sent to hospital but later died.

To be exact, it confused him as a box of red peppers. Man, what a way to go.
Um, no, the robot did not “confuse the man for a box of vegetables”. At the risk of yelling at clouds journalism is garbage these days. Yikes.
the robot did not “confuse the man for a box of vegetables”.
Maybe he was acting like a squash.
I ought to beet you up for that one.
Just a sad glimpse into how crushing capitalism in South Korea is.
