The basics of imaging require a certain number of elements. The acoustic window must be a certain size for the application, the elements must be smaller than a wavelength to avoid grating lobes (0.5 wavelength for perfect phased arrays in t

I do appreciate being called a "condescending asshat", I might get a t-shirt with that on it, thanks. I though my credentials were one paragraph instead of many, but maybe I need to count again. As for lording it over you with qua

Quick answer - yes, GPUs are now reaching the point that they are becoming useful, but also imaging techniques such as superresolution methods, ultra fast imaging, and others, demand even more computation. I expect to see advancements in th

Original post author here, thanks for your comments. There is a robust second hand market for ultrasound systems and probes, just google for those companies or search on eBay. There are also research platforms out there for imaging from var

Because there are multiple competitors in the field, and you are a new entry. In order to be accepted as an unknown in a quality and results conscious market, you either have to be way better, way cheaper, or some combination of those. If y

A 2 cent PZT buzzer is ridiculously far from an ultrasound probe, engineering wise, and your units are off by about three orders of magnitude. And soldering depoles PZT. A transducer does not cost as much as a car (well, not a well made car

I appreciate the comment, though I think the situation is often more nuanced - a junior employee may simply not have all the facts, and a more senior one may either have a 'gag order' on exit or worried that saying anything negati

Planning on doing 'Apple compliance testing' is a zero cost thing to do, and has no effect on getting a deal with Apple. People seem to read into this statement what they want it to say - given Energous is a publicly traded compan
