echolocation in humans

Humans can develop a form of echolocation by making clicking sounds or other noises and interpreting the returning echoes reflected off nearby objects. When sound waves bounce back, the brain analyzes the delay, volume, and frequency changes to determine the location, size, and shape of objects around us. This ability, often used unconsciously by some blind individuals, effectively turns sound into a virtual map of the environment, enhancing spatial awareness and navigation without visual cues. Echolocation demonstrates the brain's remarkable adaptability in using auditory information to perceive the world.
