Ultrasonic particle manipulation is a non-contact manipulation method that uses ultrasonic waves to trap, orient and transport small particles.
Ultrasonic electrostatic transducers have wide bandwidth and are ideally suited for parametric sound systems or high-accuracy distance measurements.
Parametric sound systems use ultrasonic waves modulated with audio signal to reproduce sound in localized regions.
Specialized hardware is needed for driving and controlling ultrasonic transducers in multi-channel/high-voltage systems.
