Navy SBIR Phase I — Alternative Navigation for Hypersonic Vehicles in GPS-Denied Environments
Six-month Phase I SBIR contract to demonstrate Anello's optical-gyroscope and sensor-fusion navigation technology for hypersonic vehicles in GPS-degraded/denied environments.
Six-month Navy SBIR Phase I (topic N242-075, contract N68335-24-C-0541) under which Anello Photonics develops a low size/weight/power inertial-navigation approach for hypersonic vehicles based on its silicon-photonics optical gyroscope (SiPhOG), including modeling, simulation, and preliminary demonstration against the Navy's terminal-phase navigation success criteria. The work targets GPS loss during hypersonic flight caused by plasma-sheath radio blackout; the Phase I deliverable is a validated concept plus an initial prototype design for a potential Phase II.
