Bzigo is a technology start-up company that develops autonomous devices for pest control.[1][2] The company was founded by Nadav Benedek and Saar Wilf,[3] who are both alumni of the Israel Defense Forces' intelligence Unit 8200.[4]
Technology
The Bzigo device scans a room for mosquitoes using specialized optics and computer vision algorithms to identify flight patterns.[4][5][6] Once it detects that a mosquito has landed, the device marks its location with a pointer and sends a message to a phone application, allowing the recipient to locate the pest and kill it.[7][8]
