IS4S Awarded Phase I SBIR for Land Navigation Using a Cell Phone
Auburn, AL
PEO C3T awarded IS4S a Phase I SBIR contract to implement land navigation techniques on a cellular phone. IS4S will perform feasibility studies and conduct performance analyses on automated path tracking (step counting or dead reckoning) and sight reduction methods (using terrain and celestial observations) that will enable a warfighter to determine position when GPS is not available. The feasibility study results will determine what and how traditional land navigation techniques can be implemented on a cellular phone. A software architecture will define the Phase II integration into a commercial Android OS and Nett Warrior.
