Navigation & Positioning

The Industry Problem

Modern Navigation Depends on Fragile Infrastructure Most navigation systems rely heavily on satellite positioning. This creates vulnerabilities.

GPS signals can be jammed, spoofed, degraded or entirely unavailable in:

Contested defense environments

Underwater environments

Dense urban zones

Tunnels

Remote terrain

When it comes to autonomous systems, even a momentary loss of positioning might expose the system to significant operational risk.

Magnetic Navigation Using the Earth Itself QMX measures Earth's magnetic field to develop environmental fingerprints.

Autonomous systems can determine position without satellites by comparing live magnetic data to magnetic maps. Applications include:

UAV navigation

UUV navigation

Subterranean positioning

Tunnel navigation

Resilient military positioning

Autonomous robotics

Infrastructure inspection

QMX provides an additional navigation layer when conventional system fail.
