What could possibly go wrong? “Honey, the mosquitoes are all dead but I am blind.”

I don’t want a laser strong enough to “zap” mosquitoes anywhere near my eyes.

They perfect this thing, and to me, they are no longer the Yellow Peril. The enemy of the mosquito is my friend.

Our electric “zappers” work just fine.

It really just sprays DDT everywhere but there’s flashing lights to make you feel better.

I’m an owner of a company that ties facial recognition software to a 50 cal deployed in Korea and certain other high risk areas. So far they have a human that lets it kill or not kill.

But it can easily be set on auto. Or to kill anything with a human face within a box.

Team (3 people) mobile and packable. Blows itself up if you tamper with it without the key card.

As it works now, South Koran soldiers get scanned in and also have what is essentially a passive IFF beacon and then wander into the kill box.

It made me realize the robots will win if they want to fight.

Ours always either attracted more bugs or got so full of moths they’d short out.

I’ll stick with barn swallows. They wreck havoc on the wasps and other flying insects around my farm.
