Deadline: 9 October 2024
UK registered organizations can apply for a share of up to £6 million for innovation projects demonstrating quantum technology solutions for determining position, navigation and time this funding is from Innovate UK.
The aim of this competition is to accelerate the commercialization of position, navigation and timing measurement products relying on quantum technologies.
Your project must demonstrate innovative solutions, using second generation quantum technologies to solve end user problems in the measurement of position, navigation, and time, for example, supporting navigation in satellite denied environments, or where high levels of integrity are required, creating resilience in all contexts.
You must demonstrate these technologies in an environment representative of the intended use.
Themes
- Your project must focus on one or more of the following:
- Quantum technologies for positioning, navigation and timing (PNT).
- Quantum-enabled sensing for navigation applications.
- Exploiting the capabilities of second generation quantum technologies, defined as those involving the generation and coherent control of quantum states.
