GPS alternative for drone navigation leverages celestial data

Sydney, Australia (SPX) Dec 10, 2024

In response to the rising threat of GPS jamming in drone warfare, researchers at the University of South Australia (UniSA) have pioneered a celestial navigation system that uses star-based visual data as an alternative to the global positioning system. Combining celestial navigation with vision-based technology, UniSA's remote sensing engineers have created a lightweight, cost-effective sy
