navigation by reflected sound

a way some animals find things by listening to echoes

Kullanım kalıbı: echolocation (in [animal])
Sık yapılan hata:
Echolocation is not the same as simply having good hearing; it specifically involves using echoes from sounds that are produced.
Eş anlamlılar
biosonar (often used for echolocation in animals, especially marine mammals.)
Zıt anlamlılar
vision (finding things by sight rather than by echoes.)
Eşdizimler
bat echolocation |dolphin echolocation |use echolocation |echolocation ability |echolocation system |echolocation calls |echolocation pulses |echolocation signals |echolocation behavior |navigate by echolocation
Konular
animals |biology |senses |nature
Örnekler
  • Bats rely on echolocation to avoid obstacles in the dark.
  • Scientists recorded echolocation calls to study how dolphins hunt.
  • The cave fish showed reduced vision but strong echolocation-like sensing.
Öğrenenler için örnekler
  • Bats use echolocation at night.
  • Echolocation helps dolphins find fish.

locating objects with sound echoes

a way to find objects by sending sound and listening to the echo

Kullanım kalıbı: echolocation for [purpose]
Sık yapılan hata:
Learners often confuse echolocation with radar; radar uses radio waves, while echolocation uses sound.
Eş anlamlılar
sonar (a broader term; echolocation is often used for biological or biomimetic sonar.)
Zıt anlamlılar
radar (a different ranging method that uses radio waves instead of sound.)
Eşdizimler
echolocation technique |echolocation method |echolocation-based navigation |echolocation algorithm |echolocation sensor |echolocation experiment |echolocation data |echolocation mapping |underwater echolocation |echolocation signal processing
Konular
science |technology |sound |navigation
Örnekler
  • The robot uses echolocation to map the corridor when the lights are off.
  • Engineers tested echolocation methods for obstacle detection in drones.
  • Echolocation can be effective underwater because sound travels well in water.
Öğrenenler için örnekler
  • The device uses echolocation to find walls.
  • Echolocation works by listening to echoes.

human navigation by clicking sounds

a way some people use echoes to know where things are

Kullanım kalıbı: learn echolocation; use echolocation to [do something]
Sık yapılan hata:
It does not mean using a machine; in this sense it can be a learned human skill.
Eş anlamlılar
click-based navigation (describes the common technique used in human echolocation.)
Zıt anlamlılar
visual navigation (moving around mainly by using sight rather than echoes.)
Eşdizimler
human echolocation |learn echolocation |echolocation training |echolocation skills |mouth clicks |use clicks for echolocation |echolocation in blind people |practice echolocation
Konular
health |disability |senses |daily_life
Örnekler
  • After months of practice, he used echolocation to move confidently through unfamiliar rooms.
  • The documentary showed how echolocation can help some blind people judge distance.
  • She made small clicks and listened for changes in the echo as part of her echolocation routine.
Öğrenenler için örnekler
  • He learned echolocation to walk safely.
  • She uses clicks for echolocation.

the act of echo-based detection

finding something by using echoes

Kullanım kalıbı: echolocation of [object/area]
Sık yapılan hata:
This is a broad sense; in many contexts it specifically refers to animals (especially bats and dolphins).
Eş anlamlılar
echo ranging (a general descriptive term for measuring location by echoes.)
Zıt anlamlılar
direct observation (identifying something without relying on reflected sound.)
Eşdizimler
the echolocation process |echolocation of targets |echolocation in darkness |echolocation in water |echolocation research |echolocation study
Konular
science |sound
Örnekler
  • Echolocation is an efficient way to detect objects when visibility is low.
  • The lecture explained echolocation as a process of measuring time delays in echoes.
Öğrenenler için örnekler
  • Echolocation uses echoes to detect objects.

1
/bˈæt ˌɛkoʊloʊkˈeɪʃən/
fixed phrase technical

echolocation used by bats

the way bats use echoes to find things

Örnekler
  • Researchers analyzed bat echolocation to understand how bats track fast-moving insects.

dolphin echolocation

1
/dˈɑlfən ˌɛkoʊloʊkˈeɪʃən/
fixed phrase technical

echolocation used by dolphins

the way dolphins use clicks and echoes underwater

Örnekler

echolocation call

1
/ˌɛkoʊloʊkˈeɪʃən kˈɔl/
fixed phrase technical

sound used to create echoes

a sound an animal makes to hear echoes

Örnekler

fixed phrase technical

echo use without making sounds

finding things by listening to echoes of other sounds

Örnekler
  • Some researchers discuss passive echolocation in animals that exploit ambient noise.
