Until Richard Nixon signed the Occupational Health and Safety Act into law in 1970, 14,000 American workers died and another 2 million were disabled every year in the 1960s.
One of the first industrial robots was UNIMATE, which was capable of doing one task repeatedly. But problems arose when confronted anything even slightly unusual. Such as if a variation in temperature made it difficultto get a piece of metal outof its mould. The robot then tended to drastically increase power to get it out, winding up flinging the red hot slug of metal across the factory floor.
