2. What is Ultrasound? ➢ Sound waves with a frequency of > 16 kHz ➢ Speed of sound  ~ 340 m/s ➢ Needs a medium to travel in (air, water… not vacuum) ➢ Gets dampened a lot through air  loses its power, effect rises with the frequency  low frequencies for long distances and high frequencies for short distances ➢ Humans: 20 Hz – 20 kHz ➢ Dogs: 15 Hz – 50 kHz ➢ Bats: > 100 kHz Sound source Object
3. Ultrasound up to Today Animals Industry
4. Ultrasound up to Today Medical Ultrasound Nautical Sonars
5. ➢ First 3D ultrasound sensor worldwide by Toposens ➢ Point cloud of objects in the sensor’s range ➢ Patented technology ➢ Specific hardware layout + sophisticated algorithms 3D Ultrasound
