Unmanned Robot Arm Throws First Pitch at KBO Game


SEOUL, Apr. 1 (Korea Bizwire)At Suwon KT Wiz Park, where the home opener of the South Korean baseball club KT Wiz was held on the afternoon of March 29, a “Robot Arm” threw the ceremonial first pitch.

The robot, which was originally used at an industrial site, was modified to throw a baseball. It is getting much attention as it integrated 5G technology and sports.

Meanwhile, KT Corp, the telecom giant that owns KT Wiz, has used new technology such as drones for ‘robot pitches’ since the home opener in 2015.
