Chinese Startup Raises $2.7M for AI-Powered Mosquito Device
- Crowdfunding Success: Photon Matrix Lab raised $2.7 million on Indiegogo, surpassing its initial $20,000 target by over 130 times, indicating strong market demand for its portable laser mosquito device, attracting 4,000 backers from more than 50 countries.
- Technological Innovation: The device integrates a computer vision module with lidar, capable of accurately capturing mosquitoes flying at speeds of up to one meter per second, targeting insects ranging from 2 to 20 millimeters in size, and reportedly handling up to 30 mosquitoes per second, although this figure has not been independently verified.
- Manufacturing Advantage: CTO Li Ran highlighted that the proximity of suppliers in Changzhou allows for high-precision fiber laser module prototypes to be developed in just two weeks, providing significant cost and time advantages over competitors in Silicon Valley, where such rapid prototyping is challenging.
- Production Plans: Although initially promising early summer 2026 deliveries, Photon Matrix now aims to begin mass production in August, acknowledging that hardware crowdfunding projects often face delays, while also needing to comply with Western safety standards, which may lead to further postponements.
