The robot uprising is starting small.<\/p>
One day, Terminator-style killer robots might stamp us out like cockroaches. For now, a new bot called the “Laser Movable Mosquito Killer Robot,” created by Chinese robotics company LeiShen Intelligent, does exactly what its name suggests: blasts mosquitoes out of the air with a laser turret.<\/p>
Roomba Rambo<\/strong><\/h2>The robot navigates like any other household bot<\/a>, but comes equipped with a bug-frying laser, according to Quill or Capture<\/em><\/a>. The company says it can kill up to 40 mosquitoes per second. That seems unbelievably high, but maybe it’s saying that the laser could carve a path through the swarm if the air was literally filled the little buggers.<\/p>LeiShen Intelligent also swears the weaponized laser is totally human-safe, which sounds exactly like what killer robots would want<\/em> us to believe — if you catch my drift.<\/p>Take the Fight to Them<\/strong><\/h2>As LeiShen Intelligent’s flowery description tells it, the bot could be used to help fight the spread of disease.<\/p>
In the past thousands of years that are written in history, human’s fight against mosquitoes have never ended with our victory. But with the invention and later-application of these laser mosquito killer products, history is there to be changed. Diseases like malaria, dengue fever and zika that [are] caused by mosquito bites will get controlled a great deal.<\/p><\/blockquote>
While the idea of a weaponized bug zapper darting around your feet might be unsettling, we’re happy to hear that these little laserbots are fighting on our side.<\/p>
