Leading to new applications of ultrasound from sound pressure and vibration data of ultrasound.

Optimization technology based on measurement and analysis of ultrasonic propagation of the target.

<Dynamic Control System for Ultrasound> The propagation state of ultrasound is captured as a system, and analysis and control are performed. Many purposes for utilizing ultrasound involve predicting or controlling the nonlinear phenomena of ultrasound propagating through target objects or liquids. However, in many implementations, numerous issues have been pointed out due to the differences between the theory of cavitation and actual results. In response to such cases: 1) To eliminate obstacles, for ultrasound that changes over time, statistical data processing of sound pressure data is conducted, known as <Measurement and Analysis Technology for Ultrasound Propagation State>. 2) Based on the results of data analysis related to the target, the acoustic characteristics of the target are confirmed through <Technology for Detecting Acoustic Characteristics Related to Surface Elastic Waves of Target Objects and Acoustic Flow of Target Liquids>. 3) By confirming the characteristics, progress is made towards achieving dynamic control of ultrasound through <Technology for Controlling Nonlinear Phenomena with Sweep Oscillation Control for Multiple Ultrasounds>. Through these methods, the utilization state of ultrasound has been improved for efficient use, and there are numerous examples of original ultrasound control systems that achieve the intended use of ultrasound.

Dynamic control technology of ultrasound through sweeping oscillation of multiple ultrasonic probes.

The Ultrasonic System Research Institute has developed a classification method for the phenomenon of ultrasonic vibrations propagation through the measurement and analysis of ultrasonic propagation states. Based on this classification, we have developed a nonlinear sweep oscillation control technology for ultrasound using a nonlinear resonant ultrasonic oscillation probe. This ultrasonic sweep oscillation control technology dynamically controls the linear and nonlinear resonance effects according to the main frequency (power spectrum) related to the propagation state of the ultrasound, based on the dynamic characteristics (changes in nonlinear phenomena). From previous experiments and data measurement analyses, we have been able to classify effective utilization methods into the following four recommended controls: 1. Two types of sweep oscillation control (linear type) 2. Three types of sweep oscillation control (nonlinear type) 3. Four types of sweep oscillation control (mixed type) 4. Dynamic control (variable type) based on the combinations above. Furthermore, the variable type can be classified into the following three control types based on the sweep oscillation conditions: 1. Linear variable control type 2. Nonlinear variable control type 3. Mixed variable control type (dynamic variable type)

[To the owners of parking lots and parking lot construction companies] "I'm worried about not colliding with pedestrians when exiting the parking lot..." Among vehicle entrances to parking lots, stores, residences, and factories, particularly at entrances facing sidewalks or roadways, there is a risk of dangerous incidents such as collisions with pedestrians or between vehicles. To alleviate such concerns, Hotron proposes a [Vehicle Exit Warning Sensor] that detects vehicle departures using various sensors and alerts the surrounding area with LED lights and buzzers. The system consists of a simple configuration of "sensor" + "controller" + "switching power supply (24V)" + "LED rotating light." *Please note that a separate control panel is required to include the controller and switching power supply (24V) when using the exit warning system. *We kindly ask customers to arrange for the switching power supply (24V), LED rotating light, control panel, circuit breakers, etc. Since it can be retrofitted, it can also be used for existing parking lot entrances. We hope this will contribute to safer vehicle passage for everyone. ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

Japan is one of the top 10 countries in the world with frequent earthquakes. The 2020 White Paper on Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism has also reported an increase in the probability of major earthquakes occurring. Regarding the Nankai Trough earthquake, the probability of an earthquake with a magnitude of 8 to 9 occurring within the next 30 years is estimated to be 70 to 80%. At Hotron, we recommend the introduction of seismic devices for earthquake countermeasures in buildings and equipment.
