Unlike with dolphins and bats,echolocationis a byproduct of human hearing, not a sense in itself. However, people who are blind from an early age are better at echolocation, says Schenkman, who is doing research that explores how people can be trained to use this ability even later in life...
However, signals that evolved for one purpose may develop other functions. Some porpoises appear to use rhythmic patterns of "echolocation" clicks as communicative signals. When a whale makes a low-frequency sound for communication, the sound may echo from the seafloor and possibly provide the ...
Some of these hunters have developed echolocation abilities to help them find their prey and locate any obstacles. Echolocation is a very simple concept: The whale emits a series of clicks (or other sounds) from its mouth or from organs in its head, and the sound waves travel out in the ...

and may shift his research to computational biology, which can be done remotely. Geneticist Alberto Bardelli at the University of Turin, told Science that for him it's a similar story. And in a bitter irony, he's been stalled in his efforts to develop a diagnostic test for the coronavirus...
Bats use echolocation, which are sound waves that travel in the air till they hit an object and bounce back to the bat so it can in a sense see what is around him by knowing how long the wave took to get back. Ultrasound works similarly to bats echolocation. It uses high frequency ...
through a series of careful empirical studies had discovered that bats used echolocation (essentially, a form of ultra-high frequency sonar) to avoid obstacles and detect their insect prey. Griffin then shocked the animal behavior establishment when in a series of carefully argued books—notablyA...
Our individuality allows for things like culture and tradition to develop and establish a sense of what it means to be human. Perhaps the variance of personalities within octopuses allows them to develop a sense of culture in a similar way to humans. However, to determine that we would have ...
To address this problem, we need to develop a mathematical theory for representing common sense knowledge that can be implemented in computer software. We start off with a set of primitive objects in the world which I will call S. A “term” is the technical term for a “mode...
