Research abstract
AOSense proposes to develop an IMU based on atom-interferometric quantum sensors for inertial navigation of U.S Navy platforms in the absence of GPS that will achieve strategic-grade performance in a field demonstration on a marine platform. This effort will leverage AOSense’s broad expertise and history of innovation in atom interferometry to significantly advance the state of the art for deployed quantum inertial sensors.
