    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

    An engineer has developed an AI-powered laser defense system designed to eliminate mosquitoes. The system involves capturing a detailed dataset of mosquitoes, training a deep learning model to identify them, and then using a precision laser to track and destroy individual insects in real-time. This closed-loop system autonomously detects, confirms, tracks, and fires upon its targets. AI

    IMPACT Demonstrates a novel application of AI for real-world problem-solving, potentially inspiring similar automated control systems.
