Laser bug zapper combats malaria


See a lecture about the device and its creation at
http://www.ted.com/talks/nathan_myhrvold_could_this_laser_zap_malaria.html

"What if  you could shine a nonlethal laser on the bug before you zap it, and you could listen to the wing beat frequency, and you could measure the size. And then you could decide: Is this an insect I want to kill, or an insect I don't want to kill?"
