• In this research work an advanced SoC based earth scanning module is designed based on Verilog language, this design is verified on zynq-7000 board. • Existing models do not have efficient material scanning methods; therefore, an advanced scanning model is necessary. • This design successfully identifies the material to be gold, water, petrol and coal. • The conventional methods worked on high power and low performance conditions but the proposed method improves the power consumption by 73.24%,area by 72.24% and are equally economical. • An advanced System-on-Chip (SoC) architecture is designed to identify different valuable minerals embedded in the earth's surface in this paper. An advanced System-on-Chip (SoC) architecture is designed to identify different valuable minerals embedded in the earth’s surface in this paper. Materials such as gold, diamond, petrol, and coal generate high revenues for developing and established nations. Therefore, to identify different materials, an efficient electronic device is designed in which scanning becomes an important parameter. This investigation is performed by an SoC-based ultrasonic module designed using Xilinx Vivado and verified on the ZYNQ-7000 FPGAboard. This architecture consists of a code generation unit, modulator, delays, emitter, demodulator, correlator, detector, and receiver. These modules are developed using Verilog HDL and deliver output on high-level processing screen. The experimental results outperform the conventional methodology with respect to reduced power consumption and area, this model is compared with existing methods to identify the operational performance. This SoC based ultrasonic scanning method improves the power consumption by 73.24% and area 72.24%.
