Abstract

A system for processing one or more detection signals from an acoustic signal detection system to image and track one or more contacts within a medium including a computer configured to receive the detection signal and a computer readable medium operatively coupled to the computer, that is capable of applying an image processing method to one or more images derived from the received one or more detection signals to estimate the kinematic characteristics of the one or more contacts.
