If AI can be used as an assistant or a go, it is certainly not a problem to kill mosquitoes.
The Alphabet subsidiary Verily has been investing in research on how to debug the Debug Project for the purpose of reducing a species called Aedes aegypti, which spreads dengue fever, yellow fever, Zika and other viruses. .
Aedes mosquitoes mainly spread in the tropics. On September 28th, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced that there were 3,625 cases in the United States, while in the border areas there were 22,069 cases, mostly in Puerto Rico. Controlling the spread of these mosquitoes has become an urgent task, and the Verily team is working hard to study how these mosquitoes are infertile and thus destroy the creatures in large numbers.
At present, the more popular method is to release male mosquitoes that cannot be reproduced to the wild to mate with females, and then the eggs that are born cannot be hatched. This method is simple, time-consuming, and only needs to be mated once, so the effect of controlling the mosquito species is most memorable.
However, from an economic point of view, if the cost can be further reduced, this method can be implemented on a large scale.
Linus Upson, vice president of Verily, said that the cost of re-cultivating these male mosquitoes is too high: "This method requires a large number of male mosquitoes, and a pilot requires at least 100 male mosquitoes."
Therefore, Verily prefers another option, which is to inject an existing male mosquito into a natural bacteria called Wolbachia, which causes the mosquito to become infertile. This method is relatively mature and is considered a “biopesticideâ€. The Kentucky-based company Mosquito Mate has been tested in Los Angeles, using the Volbak test on the related mosquito, Aedes albopictus, from the Environmental Protection Agency ( Environmental Protection Agency).
On the other hand, Verily also uses AI technology to identify the sex of mosquitoes. In previous experiments, researchers usually separated mosquitoes by hand. This was costly and error-prone. It was dangerous to release female mosquitoes with viruses because female mosquitoes depended on blood for a living, while male mosquitoes depended on plant nectar. .
In the blog, Verily shared with the public a prototype of the product that automatically raised and released the male mosquito, as well as a new sensor that tracks the population of mosquito species. Jason L. Rasgon, an associate professor of entomology and disease epidemiology at Penn State University, believes that if Verily can demonstrate this technology in an academic paper, it can help Wolbachia technology be more widely used: "any automatic, increased accuracy, not Accidental release of female mosquitoes is a good way."
LED Video Wall And LED Display Screens
We strive to create products which are environmentally balanced, outdoor LED walls are low power consumption.
