Abstract A fish detector capable of detecting species of fish. Two ultrasonic sounds at different frequencies and echoes are detected by receivers tuned to said different frequencies, respectively. The output signals from the receivers are converted into binary-coded signals and one of the binary-coded signal is divided by the other binary-coded signal. The ratio or quotient thus obtained is compared with a plurality of reference signals at different levels or strengths so as to detect whether or not the ratio or quotient is higher than the highest level or strength reference signal, lower than the lowest level or strength reference signal or between two reference signals at adjacent levels or strengths and subsequently to display in color depending upon a level of the ratio or quotient thus detected.
A fish detector capable of detecting the species of fish CHARACTERIZED in that two ultrasonic sounds at different frequencies are projected, their echoes are received by transmitter-receivers, respectively, the output signals by detected echoes from said transmitter-receivers are converted into binary-coded signals, one of said binary-coded signals is divided by the other binary-coded signal, the ratio thus obtained is compared with a number of n reference signals at different levels, thereby detecting whether or not said ratio is greater than the reference signal at the highest level, smaller than the reference signal at the lowest level or between the reference signals at adjacent levels and subsequently displaying in color depending upon the level thus detected.
