Engineer builds AI laser defense system that wiped out every mosquito in his home
1. Built a #mosquito training dataset with a DSLR and high-magnification lens.
2. Trained a deep learning model to reliably distinguish mosquitoes from background noise.
3. Mounted a laser on a industrial precision rotary stage to track and target them in real time.
The closed-loop system actively engages individual insects in real time: detects, confirms, tracks, and, fire!
