Mosquito laser hunter

Inside a room: a device identifies a flying insect, tracks its movements and beams a high-powered laser to bring it down.

The benefit is an automated perimeter protection at locations plagued by mosquitoes that bring malaria, health issues and suck the blood out of humans.

There is the risk of inadvertently shooting humans or animals.

How about a wheeled robot cockroach catcher that patrols kitchens at night?

I respect cockroaches after finding they can survive nuclear radiation.

You might need a Terminator unit from the future to effectively hunt those peskers.
