Echo location: You send out a directional high frequency sound. The sound bounces back in a slightly different way and at a slightly different time from different objects at different distances. You detect the differences with your Echo Locator device and that's how you can locate where objects are and how far away they are.
Examples:
Its how SONAR on a Navy Destroyer or Helicopter SONAR Pod detects submarines under water.
Its how a fishing boats "Fish Finder" works. (A kind of SONAR)
This is how BAT's fly at night or in the dark. (Very high pitched squeaks)
Its how Dolphins locate prey to eat and how they detect things in murky water.
Sonar (or Sound Navigation and Ranging) is a type of technology that was designed to help with navigation, communication and locate objects underwater. Sonar projects sound waves then listens for the echo of the emitted sound waves to detect objects.
SONAR (sound navigation and ranging)
We need sound to send information to our ears and brain. Sound is produced when an object vibrates. The air molecules around the object also vibrate. As long as vibrating objects are not in a vacuum they produce sound. So watch your ears.
Sound devices are used to output sounds and music from your computer.

SONAR
They use ultrasonic. The sound they use to locate objects that may be invisible.
Echoes are used to locate objects through a process called echolocation, where sound waves are emitted and their reflections from nearby objects are analyzed. By measuring the time it takes for the sound waves to return, the distance to the object can be determined. This technique is commonly used by animals like bats and dolphins, as well as in technology like sonar and radar, which help identify the size, shape, and position of objects in their environment.
Sonar uses echoes to locate objects by bouncing sound waves off them and detecting the echoes.
Sonar, which stands for Sound Navigation and Ranging, is used to locate objects underwater by sending and receiving sound waves. The device measures the time it takes for the sound waves to bounce off an object and return to the source, allowing for the calculation of the object's distance and direction. Sonar is commonly used in various applications such as navigation, fishing, and oceanographic research.

echolocation
A device commonly used to locate objects underwater is a sonar system, such as a side-scan sonar or a multibeam sonar. These devices emit sound waves into the water and then receive the echoes bouncing back from objects underwater, creating a detailed image of the seafloor or any objects present.
SONAR stands for Sound Navigation and Ranging. It is a technology that uses sound waves to detect and locate objects underwater. It is commonly used in naval warfare, underwater exploration, and fishing.
Echolocation is the term used to describe the process where a bat emits high-pitched sound waves and then listens for the echoes bouncing back from objects to navigate and locate prey in the dark.
Sonar is an acronym for "Sound Navigation and Ranging." It is a technology that uses sound waves to detect and locate objects underwater.
Sonar is an apparatus commonly used to locate submerged objects. It works by emitting sound waves that bounce off the object and return to the instrument, allowing the operator to determine the object's distance, size, and shape.
