In this invited talk, our preliminary study is presented on a virtual hole and a broadband acoustic collimator, by combination of the concept of complimentary media with transformational acoustics. Such effect is exemplified by a segmental defect in the original cloak, which appears as if a dipole scatterer was under the acoustic imager. A set of spatially varying effective parameter was derived from coordinate transformation. These parameters can be readily implemented using non-resonant acoustic elements. The numerical study confirmed the collimation of acoustic beam from a small hydrophone behind the metamaterial device. The potential application of such novel device concept in underwater communication and medical ultrasound will be also discussed.
