ABSTRACT:
A system and a method for detecting surface pressure on a surface is provided. A plurality of transponders are located on the surface for transmitting electromagnetic surface waves and for receiving the electromagnetic surface waves upon being reflected, diffracted, refracted, scattered, or otherwise altered by pressure variations on the surface. A controller is coupled to the plurality of transponders. The controller is adapted to coordinate the plurality of transponders for imaging the pressure variations on the surface. The surface includes a surface-wave medium and the surface-wave medium is pressure-sensitive.
