Quantum Timing & Positioning Systems
Ultra-precise atomic sensors as alternatives to satellite GPS.
Cold-atom interferometers and chip-scale atomic clocks that provide GPS-independent positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT). These quantum sensors resist jamming and spoofing, enable navigation in denied environments, and support critical infrastructure resilience for finance, power grids, and telecom synchronization.
