Object detection device
An object detection device includes: a wave receiver that receives a reflected wave generated by reflection, by an object, of a transmission wave incident on the object; a determination section that determines whether, in a change over time in an amplitude of the reflected wave received by the wave receiver, an amplitude of a falling portion is greater than a predetermined criterion, the amplitude of the falling portion being decreased after the amplitude has reached a maximum value; and a processing section that, on the basis of a determination by the determination section that the amplitude of the falling portion is greater than the predetermined criterion, performs a process in which the object is treated as an object to be avoided.
Electronic apparatus and method of detecting information about target object by using ultrasound waves
Provided is an electronic apparatus for detecting information about a target object by using an ultrasound wave. The electronic apparatus includes: a transmitter configured to emit an ultrasound wave modulated based on a predetermined code signal; a receiver configured to receive a reflected signal corresponding to the emitted ultrasound wave reflected from a target object; and a controller configured to acquire a reception signal from the received reflected signal and detect information about the target object based on a difference between correlation values corresponding to a plurality of predetermined periods of the reception signal and the predetermined code signal.

Time-varying template for improved short-distance performance in coded ultrasonic ranging
Ultrasonic ranging systems and methods that emit coded bursts and correlate transduced acoustical echoes of the bursts with a receive template characterizing a burst code to determine time-of-flight information use receive templates of time-variable length to improve short-range object detection. The template length is based on a time index measured from the start of the burst emission. The detection can account for a dead zone of transducer ringing following a burst. A time-variable gain that is also based on the time index can be applied to the correlated signal. The length and gain can be adjusted with reduced temporal frequency to reduce computation cost.
MULTIMISSION AND MULTISPECTRAL SONAR

AD HOC POSITIONING OF MOBILE DEVICES USING NEAR ULTRASOUND SIGNALS
An approach for providing a lower cost real time location system in less trafficked areas of a building. This approach uses on-board audio capabilities of a mobile device to receive a room response trace resulting from a self-generated acoustic signal. By comparing the room response trace to a modeled room response trace, the location of the mobile device is determined.
Multimission and multispectral sonar
A survey system including a multibeam echo sounder having a single projector array and a single hydrophone array constructs a multi-signal message and deconstructs a corresponding multi-signal echo to substantially simultaneously perform multiple survey missions.
