A new study on how bats use echolocation lends support to the temporal binding hypothesis and could also have positive implications for new technology development.
Researchers have investigated the mouth clicks in human echolocation. They hope to use synthetic human clicks to investigate how sounds can reveal the physical features of an object.
To find a mate, mice use unique high frequency sounds using a mechanism that has only previously been observed in supersonic jet engines, a new study reports.
Bats map the world in units of time, unlike humans who map the world in units of distance.
Researchers report not all bats are blind, but some have selected superior acoustic abilities over vision through evolution.
Researchers solve a long standing mystery of the neural mechanism behind the Lombard effect.
A new study sheds light on auditory perception in bats.
Dolphins blow bubble nets around schools of fish to help in hunting. Researchers may use the dolphin tactics to help make man-made sonar to detect targets such as mines in bubbly water.
A new study reports the elephantnose fish utilizes both its eyes and electrolocation to explore objects in its environment.
Researchers report human echolocation works in tandem with other senses to help deliver vital information for those with visual impairments.
Humans who use echolocation have better acuity in localizing a target from 45 degrees to the side compared to directly ahead at 0 degrees.
A new study considers how echolocation can benefit visually impaired people to navigate safely through the environment.
