Magnetic navigation paired with quantum physics might just be the solution to GPS jamming. And Leidos is betting on it. The defense tech firm is developing an alternative navigation system that uses the Earth’s magnetic field as a stable reference, pairing it with quantum sensing to steer through environments where GPS signals can’t.Called magnetic navigation (MagNav), the approach taps into quantum mechanics to measure minute magnetic variations. It relies on particles that exist in multiple states at once, a trait that makes the system both precise and resistant to interference.Read the full story on our new publication, NextGen Defense: Quantum Compass?
