Innovative Navigation Solutions for Challenging Environments
Dr. Mario Paniccia, the visionary CEO and founder of ANELLO Photonics, is set to unveil groundbreaking advancements in inertial navigation systems (INS) featuring the company’s cutting-edge Silicon Photonics Optical Gyroscope (SiPhOG™).
Event Details
The presentation titled “Facilitating Navigation in GPS-Denied and GPS-Contested Environments” is scheduled for Tuesday, May 20, 2025, from 11:20 to 11:55 AM CDT at the Solutions Theater in XPO Hall during XPONENTIAL 2025, taking place at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, Texas.
Target Audience
This session is particularly relevant for engineers and system architects focused on navigation, guidance, and autonomous systems in environments where Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) are either limited or unavailable.
About SiPhOG™ Technology
the SiPhOG is recognized as the most compact optical gyroscope developed on a silicon photonics platform, facilitating the creation of small, high-precision inertial sensors. Dr. Paniccia’s presentation will delve into the design, integration, and performance metrics of this innovative gyroscope, highlighting its capability to provide navigation-grade accuracy in scenarios where GPS signals are weak or nonexistent.
Applications and Performance Metrics
ANELLO’s inertial navigation solutions integrate the SiPhOG into both Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) and complete INS configurations. These systems are meticulously designed to function effectively across various dynamic environments and platforms, including terrestrial vehicles, aerial drones, and maritime vessels. The talk will also present insights into long-duration drift performance, Size, weight, and Power (SWaP) specifications, and strategies for system-level integration tailored for autonomous applications.
