Maker Village Kochi develops handy device to avoid touch

The risk of physical contact spreading Covid-19 has led a company at Maker Village Kochi to come up with a handy device that enables a range of common yet critical activities without the risk of exposure to the coronavirus.

SectorQube has launched the keychain-shaped CoGun that aids people in routine functions such as pushing the door-handle, pressing the ATM buttons, operating a lift or water tap, thus guarding the user against possibly germ-infested surfaces.

Priced around ₹150, CoGun is ready to take shipping orders. The innovative product was launched as part of a series of innovations taking place at Maker Village in line with an emerging national focus on indigenisation.
