Have it spray tear gas first. But wait, then the laser won’t be able to penetrate the cloud. Maybe we could add a quadcopter drone to clear a path to the mosquito for the laser to fire. But then we’ll need a system so the drone doesn’t run into a human choking on tear gas, and the drone can’t see because of the limited visibility, could we use infrared sensors I wonder? /s
This is a stupid system. I love engineers, but they tend to uh… overengineer things like this.
I think we’re overthinking this a bit. I have one simple question. Hear me out. Can a mosquito survive a nuclear blast? I’ll let you sit with that a minute.
“Nuke it from orbit, it’s the only way to be sure” has always been my policy for spiders, mosquitoes and ticks, so I’m looking forward to World War 3 going nuclear. I’m just a bit concerned that the “from orbit” part implies I’m supposed to be up there when it happens, and while I understand the basic mechanics of how to get there, I’m not sure how I’m going to handle the logistics after that point.
Could run it similar to those disinfecting light bulbs (only when the room is not occupied)
How do you ensure that the room is empty, 100% of the time? Those disinfecting light bulbs don’t have the same level of risk as this laser system.
Perhaps a second laser defense system can be installed to ensure people stay out of the original room?
I like the way you think. I think more of life’s second-order problems should be solved with blinding lasers.
Secondary problem: how to implement the sharks
But if the laser is blind, how will it hit the mosquitoes?
