AN AUTOMATED MOSQUITO HOST BIO-MIMICKING DEVICE
The present invention discloses an automated mosquito host bio-mimicking device. The device is capable of being operated in multiple modes. The device includes a pheromone chamber (1) to enclose the mosquito attractants such as pheromones, a thermal chamber (2) to mimic the body temperature and facilitate the dissemination of the pheromones, an electronic chamber (3) for automatically regulating the functioning of the device, a photocatalysis chamber (4) to generate micro quantity of CO.sub.2, a suction chamber (4a) to suck the mosquitoes reaching the mouth of the photocatalysis chamber (4), and a dehydration chamber (5) to immobilize the trapped mosquitoes. The device traps various species of mosquitoes using a broad spectrum of attractants and controls their population by providing an eco-friendly and cost-effective approach. Further, the device is portable and is operable remotely through a mobile application.

SYSTEM FOR IMAGE BASED REMOTE SURVEILLANCE IN AN INSECT TRAP
The proposed apparatus, which functions to capture insects for research purposes, incorporates a mesh platform used to gather insects, at least one funnel used to direct insects to the mesh platform, a fan positioned at the base of the apparatus to create a down draft in the air flow which forces insects to gather on the mesh platform. A camera placed above the mesh platform and funnel to collect images of the insects on the mesh platform.
