Claim 8:
9. The device of claim 6, wherein stimulating the plurality of transducers and receiving the reflected ultrasonic waves further comprises:
stimulating the first transducer of the plurality of transducers to transmit a fifth ultrasonic wave to the deformable material and receiving a fifth reflected ultrasonic wave at the first transducer from the deformable material in response to the transmitted fifth ultrasonic wave;
stimulating the second transducer of the plurality of transducers to transmit a sixth ultrasonic wave to the deformable material and receiving a sixth reflected ultrasonic wave at the second transducer from the deformable material in response to the transmitted sixth ultrasonic wave;
stimulating the third transducer of the plurality of transducers to transmit a seventh ultrasonic wave to the deformable material and receiving a seventh reflected ultrasonic wave at the third transducer from the deformable material in response to the transmitted seventh ultrasonic wave; and
stimulating the fourth transducer of the plurality of transducers to transmit an eighth ultrasonic wave to the deformable material and receiving an eighth reflected ultrasonic wave at the fourth transducer from the deformable material in response to the transmitted eighth ultrasonic wave.
