Find a hiding mosquito at night: park an old phone and get a photo alert
Turn an idle phone into a mosquito-detection camera.
Ever flipped the lights on at night, hunting one mosquito along the wall?
Park a spare phone facing a spot where mosquitoes tend to land — a white ceiling
or a bathroom wall — and Mogicam watches the view. When it sees a mosquito-like
spot, it alerts you with a photo.
Mogicam does not repel or kill mosquitoes. It's a camera that finds and tells you
where one landed. Going over to deal with it is up to you.
■ How to use
1) Prop a charging phone where you often see mosquitoes (a white ceiling or wall).
2) Aim it at a bright, plain surface about 1–1.5 m away (brighter is better).
3) Start watching and go do your thing. You'll get a sound/vibration alert on a find.
■ Features
· Real-time video analysis detects resting or moving spots (processed on-device only)
· Sound & vibration alert on a find + a red circle marking the spot
· Optional auto screenshot — check later whether it really was a mosquito
· Setup guide, charging reminder, dim-screen mode for night
■ What it needs to work well (told honestly)
· It needs a close mount (~1–1.5 m) and some light. A pitch-dark room is too dark.
· It works best on plain, single-color backgrounds (white ceiling/plain wall).
Moldings, edges and busy patterns increase false positives.
· It does not guarantee catching every mosquito — some may be missed.
■ Privacy
· Camera frames are analyzed on your device only and never sent anywhere.
· Screenshots are saved only when you turn them on, and only to your device gallery.
