In this study, the characteristics of ultrasonic sensor fabricated with PZT-Polymer 1-3 type composites are investigated. The 3-D Underwater object recognition using the self-made ultrasonic sensor and SOFM neural network is presented. The ultrasonic sensor is satisfied with the required condition of commercial ultrasonic sensor in underwater. The 3-D underwater object recognition for the training data and the testing data are 100[100%], respectively. The experimental results have shown that the ultrasonic sensor fabricated with PZT-Polymer 1-3 type composites can be applied for sonar system.
