That surface wave, in turn, produces another electric signal, which is emitted via the transducer.

HSS' transducer is a 28-micron-thick plastic film that flutters when exposed to an electric field (because it is "piezoelectric").

Norris also figured out how to achieve his sound effect using only a dinner-plate-thick transducer instead of bulky speaker cones.

Ultrasound waves are transmitted, and their echoes are recorded with a device called a transducer that's held outside your body.

During this exam, a flexible tube containing a small transducer about the size of your index finger is guided down your throat.

The transducer will transmit images of your heart to a computer monitor.

Since the esophagus passes close behind your heart, the transesophageal transducer can produce better images than can sound waves transmitted through your chest.

The bone conduction transducer allows the wearer to hear audio without the need for in-ear headphones - sound waves are instead delivered through the user's cheekbones and into the inner ear.
