EMCORE Corporation, a provider of advanced mixed-signal products that serve the aerospace & defense, communications, and sensing markets, announced today that EMCORE’s inertial navigation team will be joined for the first time by the inertial navigation team that EMCORE recently acquired from KVH Industries, Inc. at the Institute of Navigation’s (ION) GNSS+ Conference, September 21-22 at the Hyatt Regency Denver in booth #105. ION GNSS+ is the world’s largest technical meeting and showcase of GNSS technology, products, and services.

On August 9, 2022, EMCORE acquired the KVH inertial navigation business becoming the largest independent* inertial navigation provider in the industry. GNSS+ will be the first major navigation industry event where these product lines with be presented together. Combined with EMCORE’s closed-loop Fiber Optic Gyro (FOG) and MEMS-based inertial sensors, and the advanced space and navigation products of L3Harris, which EMCORE acquired on April 29, 2022, this will be a showcase of one of the inertial navigation industry’s broadest product portfolios serving a wide range of applications across the tactical, navigational, and strategic-grade segments of the market.

“We are very excited to showcase the combined capabilities of the advanced tactical FOG, IMU, INS, and TACNAV^® products acquired from KVH with EMCORE’s closed-loop FOG, transceiver, and MEMS technologies, and the high-end navigation-grade artillery and radar positioning & pointing, and battlefield survey systems acquired from L3Harris,” commented Matthew Vargas, Director of Sales for EMCORE.

“EMCORE is now uniquely positioned to serve the broadest range of grade-level performance requirements and applications across the aerospace & defense, commercial, and industrial markets,” added David Wojciechowski
 EMCORE’s Vice President of Sales, Marketing and Business Development. “We look forward to meeting you at GNSS+ to discuss how our wide range of advanced navigation solutions can support your initiatives.”
