Underwater Acoustic Sensors

Underwater acoustic sensors are devices that use sound waves to gather information about the underwater environment. They work by sending out sound signals and measuring the echoes that bounce back from objects, such as fish, underwater structures, or the seafloor. This technology is vital for various applications, including marine research, navigation, and monitoring underwater ecosystems. By analyzing these sound waves, scientists and engineers can map underwater habitats, track marine life, and even detect changes in ocean conditions, helping us better understand and protect our oceans.
