Austin, Texas-based startup Tern has secured $11 million in funding from the US Army. This capital will be allocated toward the research and development of next-generation Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) technology capable of maintaining accurate location data even in environments where GPS signals are unavailable.
Tern is a startup developing innovative positioning technology as an alternative to GPS. In modern military and civilian operations, vulnerability to GPS signal jamming and spoofing has become a major concern. The company's mission is to provide robust positioning solutions that function under any circumstances.
With this newly acquired funding, Tern will further accelerate the development of high-precision, tamper-resistant positioning technology designed for military operational environments. The company aims to eliminate excessive reliance on GPS and build systems capable of executing missions even in harsh electromagnetic conditions.
