Acoustic homing Acoustic homing is a system which uses sound to guide a moving object , such as a torpedo . Acoustic homing can be either Passive or Active in nature . Using Passive , the system is designed to move either toward or away from a sound , and may also be designed to move only toward certain types of sounds to the exclusion of others . While Active is a true Sonar . The system emits a sound pulse , that reflects off objects and then back to the system . Where the system processes the echos to determine the proper response . Method . An object can be equipped with two or more acoustic transducers , which function as speakers and microphones . If a transducer receives a sound louder than that received by the other transducer , the object turns in the transducer ' s direction . If the object is to manoeuvre in three - dimensional space , more than two transducers are needed . Typically , more than three transducers are used , and arrays of over 100 are not unknown . A large number of transducers allows for more accurate steering . Uses . Acoustic homing is useful in weapons , specifically torpedo es . Torpedoes can be made to move toward ships using acoustic homing .
