Abstract:
A system for detecting and locating a disturbance of a medium includes a medium for propagating bulk acoustic waves, a mechanism for emitting bulk acoustic waves in the medium, a mechanism for receiving the bulk acoustic waves after propagation thereof in the medium, configured to supply a reception signal from the acoustic waves received, and a mechanism for detecting and locating the disturbance in the medium from the reception signal. The medium includes a dermis layer of elastic material with a thickness locally deformable by the disturbance.
