Detection and location of surfaces in a 3D environment through a single transducer and ultrasonic spherical caps

In this paper, an ultrasonic arc map method for flat mapping is extended to three-dimensional space replacing the circumference arcs by spherical caps. An enclosed environment is scanned by employing a single ultrasonic device. The range, position, and orientation of the transducer are used to digit...
