Photon Matrix, a startup based in Changzhou, China, has opened preorders for a blue laser mosquito-killing device priced at $1,088, with an indoor infrared variant available at $988. The system uses LiDAR and AI vision technology to scan a six-metre arc, detect a mosquito within three milliseconds, and destroy it by burning its wings. The company claims the device can eliminate up to 30 mosquitoes per second even in complete darkness. Mass production of the product began in August. However, none of the performance or safety claims have been verified by independent testing.

NASA Tests GPS-Free Satellite Navigation System Using Orbital Objects as Beacons

NASA has successfully tested a new navigation system called FALCON, designed to allow satellites to determine their position without relying on GPS. The system works by using other spacecraft and orbital debris as reference points for navigation. During a three-day test, FALCON autonomously refined the known orbits of over 200 space objects. Simultaneously, the system accurately calculated the position of NASA's Starling spacecraft. The development marks a significant step toward independent satellite navigation in increasingly congested orbital environments.
