Mission-Critical Performance, Without Compromise

PhoQtek’s photonic gyroscopes deliver the high-precision inertial navigation demanded by aerospace and defense applications. Whether stabilizing aircraft, guiding unmanned aerial systems, or enhancing missile and satellite platforms, our solutions operate flawlessly under extreme conditions — ensuring operational superiority.

PhoQtek: Enabling Tactical Photonic Superiority for the Future Battlespace

PhoQtek will empower the next generation of defense systems with cutting-edge photonic technologies engineered for the most demanding operational environments. Our advanced solutions—including Fiber Optic Gyroscopes (FOG), Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs), and high-precision laser systems—will form the backbone of future navigation, targeting, and ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance) capabilities across naval fleets, armored platforms, missile systems, and unmanned autonomous assets.
In the battlespace of tomorrow, where GPS will be contested or denied, PhoQtek will provide resilient, satellite-independent navigation systems powered by Photonics Integrated Circuits (PICs). These next-gen IMUs, engineered for small UAVs, UGVs, and smart munitions, will deliver high-accuracy, low-SWaP inertial navigation under electronic warfare and jamming conditions. Our photonic IMUs will ensure reliable operation in complete GNSS blackout, enabling autonomous execution of complex missions without external positioning support.
PhoQtek’s in-house Photonics IC design and development capability will ensure full control over fabrication, miniaturization, and ruggedization—producing defense-grade hardware capable of withstanding shock, vibration, EMI, and extreme climates. All systems will be built to meet or exceed MIL-STD specifications, allowing seamless integration into modern and future defense platforms.
To secure the digital backbone of defense infrastructure, PhoQtek will deploy Quantum Random Number Generators (QRNGs) as trusted entropy sources for cryptographic systems. These modules will generate true quantum-based randomness to safeguard tactical communications, secure command links, and space-ground data exchange from both classical and quantum computing threats.
Complementing our hardware innovation, PhoQtek already operates a state-of-the-art post-quantum secure data center, powered by GPU-accelerated high-performance servers. This infrastructure will enable real-time simulation, advanced photonic circuit modeling, quantum algorithm design, and digital twin development for mission-critical systems. With full-stack support for AI-driven design optimization, quantum-safe protocol testing, and virtual battlefield validation, this facility will be the nucleus of next-generation defense R&D.

Future Use Case: Autonomous ISR in Contested Airspace

In a future reconnaissance mission deep within a GPS-denied, EW-heavy theater, a swarm of autonomous fixed-wing UAVs equipped with PhoQtek’s PIC-based IMUs and FOG-enhanced navigation units will be deployed for high-precision ISR. Without relying on satellites, each UAV will maintain accurate trajectory and geolocation using PhoQtek’s inertial core, integrated with real-time onboard processing and terrain-matching algorithms.
Mission data will be encrypted in real time using QRNG-fed post-quantum cryptographic protocols and transmitted via secure tactical links. All flight paths, threat maps, and targeting models will have been pre-validated through PhoQtek’s GPU-powered simulation stack, ensuring optimal deployment even in dynamically changing scenarios. The mission will demonstrate complete autonomy, quantum-secure resilience, and actionable intelligence in the most contested operational environment.
PhoQtek will define the future of defense photonics—delivering dominance through precision navigation, quantum-secure systems, and AI-driven innovation at the edge and beyond.
