Bzigo Explained
Bzigo is a technology startup 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.[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]
