This is awesome, they’ve created a weapon that can identify, track and fire lasers at Mosquito’s to kill them. Now I understand that there is safety problems with firing lasers around a room, but its such a cool idea.

Like someone said in the comments on Slashdot all they need to do is put it on the top of a Roomba and it clean up the carcasses left after shooting the mosquito’s down.
