Maris-Tech Announces a Development Milestone in Quantum Navigation Technology for Autonomous Defense Systems

Rehovot, Israel, March 20, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Maris-Tech Ltd. (Nasdaq: MTEK, MTEKW) (“Maris-Tech” or the “Company”), a provider of edge artificial intelligence (“AI”) video and data processing solutions for defense and autonomous platforms, today announced a development milestone in its collaboration with Quantum Gyro Ltd. (“Quantum Gyro”), a company developing next-generation quantum-based gyroscope technology.

Quantum Gyro has entered into an exclusive license agreement with Quantum X Labs Ltd., its parent company, covering certain quantum gyroscope technology for navigation and global positioning system (“GPS”) replacement applications. Quantum X Labs Ltd. is also the assignee of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 64/000,184, filed on March 9, 2026, relating to an advanced nuclear magnetic resonance (“NMR”) gyroscope technology,  reflecting a step forward in the patenting process.

The technology represents a new approach to high-precision inertial sensing. The system measures rotation by detecting shifts in the Larmor frequency of nuclear magnetic moments as they precess around an applied magnetic field, enabling extremely accurate measurement of angular motion

The companies’ focus on the development of a hybrid navigation architecture that integrates real-time AI processing with a quantum-based gyroscope capable of ultra-precise inertial measurement. By combining these technologies, the system is expected to provide a potential alternative or complementary navigation capability to GPS, significantly improving operational resilience for aerial and autonomous systems.

This quantum-based sensing architecture is designed to deliver potentially strategic-grade performance at lower cost, targeting bias drift below 0.01 degrees per hour, a level of precision traditionally associated with much larger and more expensive navigation systems. When integrated with Maris-Tech’s edge AI processing capabilities, this technology is expected to enable highly resilient navigation solutions capable of operating effectively even in GPS-denied or contested environments.

The need for such capabilities is particularly acute in the rapidly expanding unmanned aerial systems (“UAS”) market, where drones rely heavily on satellite navigation for guidance and stabilization. The joint technology is expected to enhance the autonomy and resilience of unmanned aerial vehicles (“UAVs”) operating in contested environments, where GPS signals may be intentionally disrupted.

“We believe that our collaboration with Quantum Gyro represents an important step toward next-generation resilient navigation systems,” said Israel Bar, Chief Executive Officer of Maris-Tech. “By combining Maris-Tech’s AI edge processing capabilities with quantum inertial sensing, we aim to deliver a solution that allows aerial platforms to operate reliably even when GPS signals are unavailable.”

Danny Noylander, Chief Executive Officer of Quantum Gyro, added: “Quantum sensing technologies are opening a new frontier in precision navigation. Collaborating with Maris-Tech allows us to combine our quantum gyroscope innovation with advanced AI processing to create a powerful navigation solution designed for the most demanding aerospace and defense environments.”
