In 2019, Intronics Co., Ltd. recognized the shortage of medical equipment and took the initiative to design, experiment with, and test a phototherapy device for treating newborns with jaundice (Phototherapy for Neonatal Jaundice). The company donated 160 units of the device to various hospitals.
However, due to the large number of requests from hospitals and growing public awareness, many individuals also wished to contribute to the cause. The company therefore acted as a charitable intermediary by accepting donations and producing an additional 400 units at cost price. In total, 560 units were donated and distributed to hospitals across the country.
