Saturday, July 17, 2010: 12:00 pm (Bell): This talk will introduce bat echolocation, in both behavioral and neuroscientific contexts, demonstrate relevance to engineered (sonar) systems, and provide a description of and results from Scott Livingston's effort to study spatial aspects of bat sonar beams. There will also be an outline of ideas for improving ultrasound range finders (e.g., as common in robotics) and time for discussion.
