$ONDS gives me exposure to the autonomy layer of drones through drone-in-a-box systems, autonomous networks, counter-drone technology and command-and-control software. Ondas could become a broader autonomous defense platform across aerial drones, counter-UAS, ground robotics, ISR, border security and other mission-critical use cases.

Australia unveils jam-proof quantum tech that’s 50 times more accurate than GPS alternatives | Christopher McFadden, Interesting Engineering The system was found to be 50 times more accurate than traditional GPS alternatives. Australia’s Q-CTRL has announced the first real-world demonstration of its commercially viable quantum navigation system. The system works without Global Positioning Systems (GPS), cannot be jammed, and is already proving to be drastically more accurate than anything else. This is a big deal as many vehicles worldwide (including planes and cars) rely heavily on GPS for navigation. However, GPS can be jammed, spoofed, or even denied, especially during military conflicts or cyberattacks. This is a growing concern for national security and autonomous vehicles, which need constant, accurate location data. In fact, according to a press release by Q-CTRL, GPS jamming has been shown to disrupt around 1,000 flights every day. An outage on this scale is estimated to cost the global economy around $1 billion daily. Therefore, finding a reliable backup to GPS is critical, especially for defense and autonomous systems. Navigation without GPS To this end, Q-CTRL developed a new system called “Ironstone Opal,” which uses quantum sensors to navigate without GPS. It’s passive (meaning it doesn’t emit signals that could be detected or jammed) and highly accurate. Instead of relying on satellites, Q-CTRL’s system can read the Earth’s magnetic field, which varies slightly depending on location (like a magnetic fingerprint or map). The system can determine where you are by measuring these variations using magnetometers. This is made possible using the company’s proprietary quantum sensors, which are incredibly sensitive and stable. The system also comes with special AI-based software, which filters out interference like vibrations or electromagnetic noise (what they call “software ruggedization”). The system is small and compact and could, in theory, be installed in drones or cars and, of course, aircraft. Q-CTRL ran some live tests on the ground and in the air to validate the technology. As anticipated, they found that it could operate completely independently of GPS. Moreover, the company reports that its quantum GPS was 50 times more accurate than traditional GPS backup systems (like Inertial Navigation Systems or INS). The systems also delivered navigation precision on par with hitting a bullseye from 1,000 yards. Technology now proven Even when the equipment was mounted inside a plane, where interference is much worse, it outperformed existing systems by at least 11x. This is the first time quantum technology has been shown to outperform existing tech in a real-world commercial or military application, a milestone referred to as achieving “quantum advantage.” Because of its stealthy, jam-proof, and high-precision nature, this tech is highly attractive to military forces, notably Australia, the UK, and the US. However, it could also prove valuable to commercial aviation companies, autonomous vehicles, and drones. It could be a game-changer for navigation in hostile environments, GPS-denied zones, or deep-sea/mountainous regions where GPS doesn’t work well.

🚨🇺🇸 SPACEX LAUNCHES GPS III-7: NEXT-GEN SATELLITE BOOSTS DEFENSE AND CIVILIAN NAVIGATION SpaceX launched GPS III-7, the latest next-generation satellite that will revolutionize navigation for both military and civilian users: "Today's mission is also Falcon 9's 7th launch of a GPS satellite, helping provide everyday navigation on your phone and in your car in addition to enabling autonomous vehicles, disaster response organizations, banking transactions, advanced defense capabilities, and more. GPS-III is the next generation of satellites required to maintain the GPS constellation's resiliency and improve services to meet user demand." The Falcon 9 booster completed its fourth flight, previously launching cargo to the ISS, a classified mission, and Starlink satellites. SpaceX's reusability continues to drive down launch costs for critical national security missions. This marks SpaceX's second accelerated mission for Space Force, proving private innovation can deliver defense capabilities faster and cheaper than traditional contractors. Every smartphone, bank transaction, and military operation depends on these satellites. Source: SpaceX

HOW TO TRACK PEOPLE WITH THEIR IMAGES Many photos taken with modern smartphones contain hidden information called GPS metadata. This data is stored in the image file using a format known as EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format). Along with camera settings like time, date, and device model, EXIF data can also include the exact GPS coordinates of where the picture was taken. When someone takes a photo with location services enabled, the phone uses the Global Positioning System to record the latitude and longitude. These coordinates are automatically embedded into the image file’s metadata. If the image is shared without removing this metadata, anyone with basic tools or online metadata viewers can extract the GPS coordinates from the file. By entering those coordinates into a map service such as Google Maps, they can see the exact location where the photo was taken. Because of this, an image can unintentionally reveal where a person lives, works, or frequently visits. For privacy and safety, many people remove metadata or disable location tagging before sharing photos online.
