A computer vision and robotics enthusiast has developed a prototype "ultimate mosquito killer" that uses a custom-trained AI model to detect and target mosquitoes with a laser. The project involved four months of development, including collecting a large dataset of mosquito images and training a deep learning model, which was then integrated with a laser and a precision gimbal. The system also includes a wide-angle camera to detect humans and flammable materials, ensuring safety by disabling the laser if necessary. AI
