Ultrasonic guided waves are gaining acceptance for structural health monitoring and nondestructive evaluation of plate-like structures. One configuration of interest is a spatially …
Background Many bats vocalizing through their nose carry a prominent noseleaf that is involved in shaping the emission beam of these animals. To our knowledge, the exact role of …
We present a novel FastSLAM approach for a robotic system inspecting structures made of large metal plates. By taking advantage of the reflections of ultrasonic guided waves on the …
Echolocating bats have excellent spatial memory and are able to navigate to salient locations using bio-sonar. Navigating and route-following require animals to recognize …

Bat echolocation is a dynamic behavior that allows for real-time adaptations in the timing and spectro-temporal design of sonar signals in response to a particular task and …
This paper presents a proof-of-concept for a localization and mapping system for magnetic crawlers performing inspection tasks on structures made of large metal plates. By relying on …
Recently we have developed an in-air sonar system that is capable of generating 3D descriptions of environments containing multiple reflectors using a single broadband …
