SPARC AI Inc. has completed and launched a fully offline, GPS-denied navigation and laser-free target acquisition application on a defense-grade Tactical Edition smartphone. This development enables mission-critical navigation and camera-based target location generation in contested environments without reliance on Global Navigation Satellite Systems, connectivity, lasers, or external equipment.
The system's importance lies in its ability to maintain operational capabilities when traditional positioning technologies are compromised or unavailable. Military and defense personnel operating in electronic warfare environments, urban canyons, or underground facilities frequently lose GPS signals, creating navigation and targeting challenges that can compromise mission success and safety.
Deployed on a Samsung Tactical Edition device supplied via reseller Precision Technical Defence, the on-device software maintains navigation continuity and outputs defense-preferred Military Grid Reference System coordinates while operating entirely offline. This eliminates dependency on satellite constellations that adversaries can jam or spoof, providing a resilient alternative for positioning and orientation.
The laser-free target acquisition capability represents another significant advancement, allowing operators to generate target coordinates using only the smartphone's camera without emitting detectable laser energy. This stealthier approach reduces the risk of detection while maintaining targeting accuracy for artillery, airstrikes, or reconnaissance purposes.
SPARC AI is simultaneously advancing U.S. market access through the formation of a U.S.-based subsidiary to support defense procurement and government contracting opportunities. This strategic move positions the technology for adoption by U.S. military and allied forces seeking resilient navigation solutions.
The company's broader technological approach focuses on high-tech solutions for GPS-denied environments that enhance perception and awareness. According to their corporate information, SPARC AI has developed an innovative Target Acquisition System and Autonomous Flight solution for drones without requiring GPS, satellite, lidar, radar, image recognition or any other complex hardware or software solution.

The implications of this technology extend beyond immediate military applications to potential civilian adaptations for first responders, search and rescue teams, and critical infrastructure operators who may need to function when traditional navigation systems fail. As electronic warfare capabilities proliferate globally, technologies that maintain functionality in denied environments become increasingly vital for national security and emergency response capabilities.
