Frequency Electronics, Inc. announced it has been awarded a subcontract from Leidos to develop a next-generation Nitrogen Vacancy (NV) Diamond Magnetometer. This advanced quantum magnetometer is designed to detect magnetic fields for magnetic navigation in GPS-denied and degraded environments.
The system is well-suited for deployment in challenging operational environments where traditional sensing technologies face limitations. Frequency Electronics will lead the design, prototyping, and testing phases of this multi-year effort, collaborating with Leidos and MIT-Lincoln Labs.
Dr. Thomas McClelland, President and CEO, stated that this subcontract reflects the growing demand for highly sensitive, reliable, and compact magnetic field sensors across defense, intelligence, and scientific applications. This initiative aligns with national investments in quantum technologies to enhance situational awareness and navigation capabilities.
