Four steps. One continuous loop.
A closed-loop detection and response cycle that operates every 250 milliseconds — personalised to the mosquito actually present, not a generic broadcast signal.
Listens for wing-beat signatures
The device continuously monitors ambient audio, separating mosquito wing-beat frequencies from background noise with 96.8% precision. It works in a real room — not a controlled lab.
Determines species and sex in real time
Only mated females of certain species require a blood meal. ISARS identifies which species is present and whether it poses a risk, so the response is targeted and proportionate. Trained on 433,851 labelled samples.
Emits a personalised acoustic signal
Each mosquito carries a unique fundamental frequency in its wing-beat. ISARS extracts that individual signature and emits a precision acoustic output targeting Johnston's Organ — the mosquito's primary sensory structure — to disrupt its flight behaviour.
Continuously refines every 250 ms
The device monitors whether its signal is working and adjusts on the next timestep. The signal never repeats — so no mosquito can ever habituate to it. No resistance pathway exists for an acoustic output that changes every quarter-second.
A gap no product fills
No solution on the market today offers real-time, species-specific, adaptive acoustic repulsion. ISARS occupies a previously vacant position.
