Reminds me that Bill Gates trying to get a laser beam that scans for mosquitos, then automatically fires a blu-ray laser beam to burn them up.



Mosquito laser - Wikipedia

Once the software confirms that the insect is of the targeted species and gender, a safety check makes sure that nothing is in the way of the laser and the mosquito. Once this safety check is completed, the lethal laser is given permission to shoot.

The lethal laser could be one of several low-power consumer lasers, but blue-violet lasers, similar to the ones found in Blu-ray players, are thought to have great potential. Blue-violet lasers are preferable as higher powered ones, they are more available than red, and cheaper - due to them being used in the Blu-ray industry.[9] The lethal laser is fired at the mosquito and is able to kill it mid-flight, possibly by overheating it.[2] In a video published by Intellectual Ventures, the mosquito's wings appear to wither, shrivel up and the body drops to the floor, often motionless.[11]
