An AI-enabled insect control system for livestock protection is developed using Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS) based induction heating technology. The system operates on a 12 V DC supply where a ZVS circuit generates high- frequency AC to drive an induction coil for rapid, flameless heating. The induced heat is used to vaporize a natural-source mosquito repellent liquid without direct combustion or chemical spraying. An STM32 NUCLEO-L412KB microcontroller with an LDR sensor controls system activation through a relay for safe and energy-efficient operation. A 12 V DC air pump distributes the generated repellent vapor inside the cattle shed. The proposed system provides a safer and sustainable solution to improve cattle health and support livestock growers.
