ANELLO Photonics, the creator of the SiPhOG and a provider of cutting-edge integrated silicon photonics solutions for navigation in GPS-denied environments, has been awarded a Phase II SBIR contract for the U.S. Army.

ANELLO was selected for a Small Business Innovation Research Phase II from US Army
GNSS INS from ANELLO for high-precision navigation for GPS-denied environments.

During the eighteen-month period, ANELLO will demonstrate the capabilities of its innovative silicon photonics optical gyroscope technology and sensor fusion technology for navigation in environments without GPS.

The Phase II SBIR award enables ANELLO to showcase to the U.S. Army its cutting-edge integrated silicon photonics technology together with its products using the ANELLO AI-based sensor fusion engine. This will ensure that the U.S. Army platforms can maintain high-accuracy navigation in challenging GPS-denied situations.

Mario Paniccia, CEO of ANELLO Photonics, said; “We are excited to work with the U.S. Army and provide them access to our innovative and cutting-edge SiPhOG technology.

“Within this program, the U.S. Army can directly evaluate and experience first-hand the benefits of the ANELLO products for navigation in GPS-denied or contested environments.”
