Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé pour détecter des objets cachés, au moyen d'une pluralité de transducteurs électromécaniques comprenant au moins un générateur d'ondes de pression électro-acoustiques et au moins un détecteur acousto-électrique situés au-dessus d'une surface de terrain ou d'eau sélectionnée ou au-dessus d'une surface d'un objet souterrain ou immergé. Ce procédé s'utilise par conséquent pour détecter des objets souterrains ou immergés. Il consiste à déterminer l'emplacement des transducteurs les uns par rapport aux autres, à alimenter en courant le générateur d'ondes de pression pour produire une onde de pression sortante, et à transmettre cette dernière à travers la surface sélectionnée. Il consiste également à détecter les ondes de pression entrantes qui sont réfléchies par les surfaces cachées situées généralement sous la surface sélectionnée, en réponse à l'onde de pression sortante. Les ondes de surface entrantes sont analysées pour déterminer des formes tridimensionnelles d'objets cachés, situés sous la surface sélectionnée, qu'ils soient souterrains ou immergés. Différentes vues des objets cachés peuvent être affichées sur un écran de contrôle vidéo.
