the mistake is making it a racket and hitting the mosquitos, mosquitos are parasites and they can sense when we exhale, they actually find living things by sensing co2 when we exhale and they even look for the angle the co2 is moving because its always exhaled at a similar angle in most mammals, so they look for co2 moving downward at certain angles and also heat, that is how they are so good at finding us, you can actually buy mosquito traps that emulate humans breathing that use co2 and they trap the mosquitos inside, so if he used a co2 tank and put a nozzle behind the grid at a 45 degree downward angle that along with the heat from the lasers should fool the mosquitos and they will goto and linger around the grid long enough to get hit by it eventually, who would want to waste time tracking them down when you can bring them to you so easily.

The tracking laser mosquito net was very real, and was a proof of concept in a "tech to prevent malaria" challenge. It didn't track the mosquitoes by appearance, but by the frequency of their wing flapping. It used a high-speed camera and was so sensitive to this it could even differentiate between species of mosquitoes and kill only ones deemed unwanted (who wouldn't label all of them as unwanted?). With a proper powered IR laser you can easily galvo scan a large area (consumer ILDA galvos can hit 60k points per second) and toast the skeeters.

"So we went to the year 3000 Not much has changed but we *use laser to kill flies* "

the "dang that one looks way better" at the end killed me

Glad to see Styropyro isn’t dead.

Cool idea here to make this more effective: 1.) Make the square larger, much larger. About the size of a 2x2 canvas. 2.) Weld or attach a hanging hook to two sides of it. Make sure they are opposite. 3.) Change the press and hold button to an "on/off" switch. 4.) Grab some chains, go out on your deck, and center the square in between the railing and the wooden beam directly above it, drill the ends of the chain into both sides, and stretch them taut. Itll hold the square in place and upright. 5.) Get a cheap Lasko fan with an extendable base, a 16 inch or so would be fine, and place it in front of the grid on the deck, as close as you can to the lasers themselves. Face the fan towards you and away from the grid, and turn that sucker on. It'll create a suction vortex that will grab any mosquitoes and other flying pests that wander too close to the grid, and suck them through. Also, you don't need to worry about attracting them. My theory is that the lasers will transfer heat to the metal square, through the mirrors over time. And they will transfer heat to the mirrors themselves. Mosquitos can see thermal energy with their eyes (how they determine if something is alive and has pumping blood), so they will likely see the mirrors and metal being heated up, and fly on in to check it out. You have yourself an automated, laser grid, mosquito zapper.

More like backdoor ✋💀🙏

instant subscribe if when he picked it up and turned it on to see where the leaks were, that brawny pack behind them just burst into flame

I hope it will go for production

The genuine wholesomeness of this is so heartwarming.. Well done Allen, you have literally scarred Styropyro for life..

Seriously. They're all so happy and in their element. It looks like they all had such a fun time : )

I suggest you motorize the laser so that the reflected beams make a virtual surface instead of a grid with holes.

Was thinking of a way to do it with two parallel mirrors and a nearly perpendicular entry angle, but given the quality of mirror needed your idea may be much cheaper. Just need a tiny mirror mounted at 45° on the end of a high speed motor shaft to ensure a practically inescapable sweep rate. Combine that with circular shroud to absorb the beam and a large fan to draw the insects in. (It sounds workable enough that I wonder if that already has a patent?)

old barcode scanners use a single laser with motorized mirror going back and forth so fast you see a line. I'd use that as a source and just supercharge a laser! Edit: Mirror is not motorized, it's on a spring and has a magnet, and then a simple solenoid shakes it really fast!

@@zlac If the beam moves to fast it might not burn the insects, but if it is possible to control the speed precisely then it is an even better idea!

I had always imagined the laser at an odd angle that just keeps reflecting until the area was completely filled with a plane of light.

no flies were harmed during the making of this video

I remember when StyroPyro was obscure. It's great to see you guys collaborating. I f#&%ing love lasers so much
