Transforming an ultrasonic digitizer into an accurate three-dimensional position measurement system for robotic aplications / by Gordon Hardy.DR52-11/16-1994E-PDF

"The Nondestructive Evaluation Group at the Defence Research Establishment Pacific (DREP) has transformed a commercial ultrasonic digitizer into an accurate three-dimensional position measurement system to guide a surface scanning robot. Four ultrasonic receivers were configured to produce the three dimensional position of an ultrasonic transmitter. By using a second transmitter to measure the speed of sound, the accuracy of the commercial digitizer was improved by a factor of five"--Abstract.
