I believe the major issue with all those off the shelf solutions is they only perform well in a room without a human.
With a human generally emitting larger amounts of CO2 and all those so called mosquito attractants, most devices simply fail to compete.
So the question is, does "this" solution works?

You still didn't answer the question of does "this" solution works. What makes this work that many others doesn't?
Forgive me for being skeptical, but there are plenty of other solutions out there with equally impressive descriptions. And making paragraphs of words with "Yes it works" or "No, not yet, but..." only sounds like advertisement.
This is a science forum. If you got the source to support these statements (like a placebo-controlled, double-blind experiment results) then please post them. Otherwise this is yet another unproven solution. Besides, I'm sure a working solution will advertise itself 100 times better than lengthy explanations.
Also, has the environment impact been checked? Will this device end up killing more other bugs than mosquitoes and upsetting nature's balance like what most bug zappers does? How long does it takes for this device to eradicate a local mosquito population? How effective would this be if only 3 out of 10 houses have this device? Or will it just be a case of you kill more of them, they just breed more? And how many species of mosquitoes does this device actually works on?
