Australian navigation technology company developing AI-powered navigation and autonomous systems for land, air, sea, and space applications, supplying Airbus, Boeing, and NASA.
Advanced Navigation, founded in 2012 and headquartered in Sydney, develops AI-powered navigation and autonomous systems spanning inertial, acoustic, and quantum sensing technologies. The company's technical portfolio covers MEMS sensors, fibre-optic gyroscope technologies, photonics, and AI neural networks - applied across land, air, sea, and space platforms. Its inertial navigation systems calculate position via motion sensors, while acoustic solutions use sound-wave propagation for positioning in GPS-denied environments.
The company's customer base includes Airbus, Boeing, NASA, Google, Tesla, and Apple, with operations extending across North America, Europe, and the broader Asia-Pacific region. Industry verticals served include aerospace, defense, marine, mining, and space. A US$110 million Series C round underpins current scale and development capacity.
Manufacturing is vertically integrated at its Australian base, with an emphasis on rigorous quality control and rapid product delivery cycles. Technical domains under active development include robotics, quantum sensing, and photonics - positioning the company at the intersection of navigation precision and autonomous-system capability for both civil and government customers.
