AETHON®, Inc., the leading developer of mobile robotic
solutions for hospital supply chain logistics, announced today the release of its newest robotic
operating system – TUGOS 6.5, which will significantly advance the operational capabilities of
its autonomous mobile robot, the TUG®. With this latest upgrade, AETHON will also be able to
increase the number of application solutions it offers to hospitals. Most notably, this advanced
navigational operating system for mobile robotics significantly increases the processing speed
of TUG’s autonomous decision-making algorithms, improving its navigational speed and agility.
The new TUGOS 6.5 also allows the use of more powerful motors and larger wheels, enabling
the TUG to automate a wide range of hospital delivery tasks, including larger delivery carts for
environmental service applications such as trash and linen.
With over 100 hospitals now using the TUG, AETHON’s innovative robotic technology offers
customers the opportunity to invest in a product that provides a proven solution to improve
quality and time of delivery while lowering costs. AETHON has been addressing the
fundamental issues associated with lowering health care costs, increasing productivity, and now
improving worker safety, through greater optimization of logistic processes.
Marc Summerfield, Director of Pharmacy at the University of Maryland Medical Center (UMMC),
called the TUG “a transformational technology that has allowed us to save technician time while
improving medication turnaround time and nurse satisfaction”. Since the upgrade to AETHON’s
newest operating system, Marc and his staff have seen an additional increase in medication
throughput. Because of the TUG’s success in the pharmacy, UMMC is looking at the new TUG
features to further enhance medication efficiency and safety goals.
AETHON’s success in developing robotic solutions is unmatched in the world. Unlike any other
robotic system, its unique proprietary technology and innovative approach gives the TUG its
ability to safely and reliably operate in unstructured and dynamic environments such as
hospitals.
