Optical tracking and laser-induced mortality of insects during flight
Addressing the need for novel insect observation and control tools, the Photonic Fence detects and tracks mosquitoes and other flying insects and can apply lethal doses of laser light to them. Previously, we determined lethal exposure levels for a variety of lasers and pulse conditions on anesthetized Anopheles stephensi mosquitoes. In this work, similar studies were performed while the subjects were freely flying within transparent cages two me…
A Chinese company has developed a laser that can kill "30 mosquitoes per second." Or at least that's what they promise on their crowdfunding page. Will we soon throw all mosquito sprays overboard? In other words: is the system feasible?
In China, one of them unveils the Photon Matrix, a domestic laser weapon capable of eliminating up to 30 mosquitoes per second, all of which is noise-free, odour-free, and poison-free. The principle is very simple: as soon as a mosquito enters its sphere of action, the Photon Matrix enters the scene. This device, inspired by anti-drones military systems, uses a combination of laser telemetry (LiDAR) and optical intelligence to detect, identify a…
