An ultrasonic probe for contact measurement of an object and its manufacturing process. The ultrasonic probe has ultrasonic sensors securely fastened to a first face of a substrate. The opposite face of the substrate defines a measurement surface having a shape that is the imprint of the surface of the object to be measured to closely follow the latter when the surface of the object is brought into contact with the measurement surface.
