China's Laser Mosquito Defense System Kills 30 Bugs Per Second
Chinese inventor Jim Wong from Changzhou has developed a laser device called the Photon Matrix, capable of eliminating mosquitoes while they're flying.
According to Wong, this is the world's first "anti-mosquito air defense system", which uses precision lasers to eliminate up to 30 mosquitoes per second.
"This isn't just another device. It's a revolution in how we fight one of the deadliest creatures on our planet. Our goal was to create something safe, effective, and futuristic," said Jim Wong during the launch of his campaign.

According to its inventor, the device is designed with safety in mind and complies with all safety certifications. It also stops working as it detects humans and pets nearby. The smart gadget is water-resistant and works both indoors and outdoors, day or night.

Although the Photon Matrix is still in prototype phase, Wong remains confident. The first units are expected to ship in October 2025, with mass production planned for March next year. Videos of the prototype in action have quickly gone viral on social media, with many users praising the design and concept. Take a look at how the device works.

Mosquitoes are considered the deadliest animals in the world, causing over 700,000 deaths each year. They transmit infectious diseases such as malaria, dengue, Zika virus, and others, many of which can be fatal to humans.
For decades, humanity has relied on various methods to fight mosquitoes. However, most have significant drawbacks - they often harm the environment and lead to increased mosquito resistance. The Photon Matrix looks like a small box, containing LiDAR sensors and a powerful laser system inside. The device scans the area and detects flying insects within three milliseconds. Once a mosquito is identified, the laser activates and instantly kills the insect.Photon matrix

The introductory price for the basic model is $468, while the professional model costs $668. The final retail prices are expected to be higher - around $700 for the basic version and $900 for the professional one.
