By emitting sounds and analyzing resulting echoes, humans and animals use active acoustic sensing systems to explore and comprehend their surroundings. Humans use high-frequency sonar systems, also known as echosounders or fishfinders, to observe fish and zooplankton in the ocean. Toothed whales and bats, on the other hand, utilize the same principles via echolocation to navigate and find food underwater and in the air.
