Bats famously have an ultrasonic navigation system: they use their extremely sensitive hearing to orient themselves by emitting ultrasonic sounds and using the echoes that result to build up a picture ...

In recent years, the fascinating world of bat echolocation has captured the attention of scientists and technologists alike. By decoding these natural sonar abilities, AI researchers are unlocking new ...

A recent study by a team of researchers led by TU Darmstadt has found that tiny amounts of liquid can navigate their way ...

It may seem remarkable, but significant evidence shows that humans could learn this sound-based “superpower” with some practice.

What can bats do for humans? They can teach them how to navigate without using their sight. Scientists found a way to help blind people improve their mobility by using echolocation. Follow us: ...

PORT JERVIS - Megan Wieboldt wanted to teach her seventh grade Life Science class at Port Jervis Middle School about echolocation. That’s how bats and dolphins, for example, aim high-frequency sounds ...

To find prey in the dark, bats use echolocation. Some species, like Molossus molossus, may also search within hearing distance of their echolocating group members, sharing information about where food ...

Clicks, squeaks, chirps, and buzzes...though they may be difficult to distinguish to our ears, such sounds are used by echolocating animals to paint a vivid picture of their surroundings. By ...

Biologists at LMU have demonstrated that people can acquire the capacity for echolocation, although it does take time and work. As blind people can testify, we humans can hear more than one might ...
