Acousto-optics Devices are being increasingly used in dental applications as well as research laboratories
Acousto-Optics is an exciting branch of technology that studies the acoustic interactions between sound waves and ultrasound waves, particularly the diffraction of visible light through an optics lens. These waves have far less energy than the sound waves so they are super quiet and traveling at the speed of light. The light that hits one of these waves will be bent around the lens and will reflect back to the detector. This way, the differences in frequencies can be measured and used to create an array of extremely sensitive instruments. Acousto-optic devices are used in many applications including space vehicles. Some of the most common items in this field include radar systems, sonar, and ultrasound guns. The technology used in these devices allows them to detect differences in frequencies. They can also measure the acoustic properties of objects. Acoustic wave systems are also used in medical and dental practices. In dental practices, such systems are use
