_nox_ said:no it creates a time dependent interference pattern which changes the direction of the wave/beam.
( i assume it only works with sonar )
dknguyen said:Works with light too, but light can be focused so much...why bother? Just use a spinning mirror.
It uses constructive and destructive interference. You have a lot of work ahead of you, mostly in how you must have complete control of the transducers involved. (I think I was the one that put forth the idea).
1. You could have a panhead
2. You could have an array instead of a panhead
3. You could use an array with beamforming to artificially focus your beam with an array of wide beamwidth transducers
3. is by far the hardest. The only place you are going to find such material is by studying/googling ACTIVE submarine beamforming sonars in the military, as opposed to passive sonars which just listen and coincidentally are used much more often because it is easier to hide due since you don't have to transmit a signal that could get intercepted.
epilot said:First, what is a "spinning mirror"? Are you meaning a rotating mirror? What is a "panhead"?
Yes I have head that it use constructive and destructive interference, but again How it doeas the job. 2 or more transducers will make constructive and destructive interference without any beamformer device too.
What is the relationship between "directing" and constructive and destructive interference while the interference only cancels the destructive part.
dknguyen said:I guess...that could be used as the motor that rotates the panning assembly...lol.

Try reading through it and looking at the pictures and piecing all the info together.
They are two "allpass" filter circuits.epilot said:What is your idea about this delay circuit? the delay amount is determined by R5 and R6.

epilot said:Hi dknguyen,
I have read all those links, but I could not to get my response.
Beamforming is used in the military radars to avoid from rotating radars,
now suppose a radar that does not rotate but can detect the thing that are in the back of it, so again how does beamforming and delaying cause focusing at that angles?
