GPS-free navigation has cleared a major hurdle: SandboxAQ's AQNav magnetic anomaly navigation software completed its first flight test on Northrop Grumman's Lumberjack attack drone in August 2026, ...

Honeywell and DIU plan to test the technology on a US military C-17 Globemaster III cargo aircraft later this year.

How can vehicles navigate where GPS signals cannot reach? Diamond-based quantum sensors are being developed to use Earth’s ...

In a nutshell: Today's typical navigation-grade motion sensors are about the size of a grapefruit, helping steer ships, planes, and vehicles in conjunction with GPS signals. This means they always ...

Sophia Feona Cantiller, a cum laude graduate in Computer Science from the University of the Philippines, swapped coding bugs for content buzz. Her true love? Writing stories. A navigation system that ...

The strategic vulnerability of GPS dependency is now a primary operational risk. Jamming and spoofing have degraded precision-guided munitions to the point that redundant, GPS-independent navigation ...

Q-CTRL's maritime navigation system uses quantum gravimeters to measure Earth's gravity variations and determine vessel position without relying on GPS signals. During trials, the navigation ...

Imagine having to find your way with only a compass and the stars and being handed a GPS. This is what David Marpaung and colleagues have just done for designers of light-based chips. Through their ...
