Last year, we proposed a physical pest control system using a semiconductor laser and camera. This system does not require pesticides.This system detects the moth's flying position using camera and fires a laser pulse beam at that position to shoot the moth . In this presentation, we attempted to speed up the tracking system to ensure that the beam is focused on the target of detection.
