Abstract
The data model for underwater real-time three-dimensional (3-D) acoustical imaging is introduced. Three real-time 3-D imaging methods: beamforming, acoustic lens and holograph are analyzed. This chapter points out that beamforming is the most promising method for developing underwater real-time 3-D acoustical imaging systems.
