A method and device for detecting an object in a substrate is disclosed. The device has a sensor unit having a sensor element and at least one further sensor element, a control and evaluation unit, and a display unit. The method for detecting an object in a substrate includes simultaneous reception of a receive signal and at least one further receive signal and simultaneous calculation of a depth cross-sectional image from the receive signal and at least one further depth cross-sectional image from the at least one further receive signal by the control and evaluation unit.

Method and device for detecting an object in a substrate

A device for detecting an object in a subsurface, including a transmitting unit having a transmitting element designed to emit a transmission signal into the subsurface, a receiving unit having two or more receiving elements designed to receive a reception signal which is a function of the transmission signal and the properties of the object and of the subsurface, a control and evaluation unit which is designed to control the transmitting unit and receiving unit and to evaluate the reception signals, and a display unit which is designed to display the reception signals evaluated by the control and evaluation unit. The transmitting unit has at least one further transmitting element which is designed to emit at least one further transmission signal into the subsurface, and the transmitting elements of the transmitting unit are controllable independently of one another by the control and evaluation unit. A method is also provided.
