Image-to-Sound Conversion in Ground Penetrating Radar Systems

摘要

A description of a software system is proposed that supports reception and preprocessing of information from ground penetrating radar (GPR), development of feature description, generation of radar displays, and synthesis of their auditory representation in tasks involving the interpretation of subsurface sounding data. A method of image-to-sound conversion is described, with the storage of image information at the level of an attainable resolution. Technical feasibility of the replacement of visual perception with acoustic perception has been substantiated. Practical limitations on the parameters of conversion have been defined, and the conformity of the coded values with the level of perception of audio information has been verified.
