A Germ-fighting Robot Kills Infectious Diseases

At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, our friends at Cargill reached out to Piedmont Newnan Hospital and asked how they could help the hospital. With their support, Piedmont Newnan purchased a Tru-D SmartUVC Robot: a germ-fighting robot that kills infectious diseases like COVID-19. Tru-D is the only device with intuitive technology that accurately calculates the precise dose of UVC light needed to kill up to 99.9% of harmful pathogens.

Check out the video below to see Tru-D in action at Piedmont Newnan.
