The paper “Interactive Tool for Exploring Ultrasonic Far Field Phased Arrays”, presented at this year’s IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium (IUS), has now been published.

In this work, we introduce a web-based design and analysis tool that allows users to explore the far-field behavior of arbitrary ultrasonic array geometries. Using the Fraunhofer approximation and the Pattern Multiplication Theorem, the tool computes the Point Spread Function (PSF) and automatically extracts key characteristics such as main lobe width and side-lobe ratio.

Its intuitive interface with 2D and 3D visualizations supports a deeper understanding of the underlying physics. As a web-based application, it runs without installation, making it particularly suitable for educational use and restricted laboratory environments.
