Trillium Demonstrates GPS Denied Capability at Jammertest 2026

Trillium Engineering showcased its GPS-denied navigation technology at Jammertest 2026, generating position and timing solutions under broadband jamming, spoofing and meaconing conditions. Using a setup that included the HD45-LV-CZ gimbal, the Trillium Labs team successfully demonstrated a navigation solution during a government-organized test designed to disrupt and deceive satellite navigation systems.

Held September 14–18 on the island of Andøya, Norway, north of the Arctic Circle, the event provided a demanding setting for testing. Over five days, the team completed 34 hours of testing, including nighttime collections.

Why GPS Denied Navigation Matters

For uncrewed systems, reliable positioning is vital to a successful operation. Position and timing information support navigation, tracking capabilities, and synchronizes video with location at time of capture, providing critical context. When GPS becomes unavailable or unreliable, systems can lose their bearings and report misleading locations, putting mission success at risk.

Jammertest exposes systems to jamming, spoofing and meaconing, challenging their ability to operate when satellite navigation is disrupted or manipulated. Trillium’s GD-Nav technology successfully demonstrated an alternative source of navigation information for systems operating at the tactical edge.

Designed for Maritime and Overland Missions

GD-Nav is designed to give users of Trillium gimbals a lightweight, robust navigation solution for maritime and overland operations, requiring no data input from the host platform. The technology can also provide an alternative navigation solution to the host platform itself, extending its utility beyond the imaging payload.

As uncrewed systems take on more demanding roles, resilience to navigation interference must be part of the design from the start. For platform developers and integrators, that means planning for GPS loss before deployment. Trillium’s GD-Nav development supports that priority, helping turn GPS-denied capability into a practical foundation for future operations.

Customer Evaluation Prototypes expected in Q3 2027, with GD-Nav release anticipated in 2028. Contact Trillium Engineering to discuss your mission requirements and navigate what’s next.
