Precision Inertial Navigation & Positioning On an Integrated Tesseract (PINPOINT)

This grant seeks proposals to develop novel inertial sensors for tactical and unmanned missions, using physics-based approaches such as electromagnetically levitated proof masses, nonlinear resonators, or high-velocity tethered microsystems. It funds research that co-designs these sensor architectures with real-time adaptive control to overcome current MEMS IMU performance limits.
