Abstract:

It is useful for referencing the characteristics of a bat's echolocation on improving the performance of intelligent devices, and a precise biological model is the  prerequisite for such studies. The principle of image reconstruction was introduced. The images were scanned by a micro-CT. A 3D digital nose model of the Chinese woolly horseshoe bat, with its vocal organs emitting ultrasonic pause for echolocation, was made using a computer. This digital model has highprecision and could be changed on a  matrix scale according to the needs of the study. This method and the digital nose model of a Chinese woolly horseshoe bat have not been previously mentioned.

Key words: Micro-CT; bat;  3D digital model
