SPARC AI Prepares for U.S. Defense Launch with Tactical Phone Deployment and U.S. Subsidiary Formation

SPAI · Price

Executive Summary

  • SPARC AI Inc. announced the completion and commercial launch of its fully offline GPS‑denied navigation and laser‑free target acquisition application on Samsung’s Tactical Edition smartphone.
  • The solution enables continuous navigation and camera‑based target location generation without GPS, network connectivity, or external range‑finding hardware.
  • The company is registering a U.S. subsidiary to facilitate participation in U.S. defense procurement programs and expand market access.

Key Details

  • Application Launch: Fully offline GPS‑denied navigation and laser‑free target acquisition software now installed on Samsung Tactical Edition devices supplied via reseller Precision Technical Defence.
  • GPS‑Denied Navigation: Provides continuous route execution, reporting, and position tracking when GNSS signals are unavailable, degraded, or spoofed; operates without network connectivity.
  • Laser‑Free Target Acquisition: Uses the phone’s camera to capture geolocation of points of interest, outputting MGRS and other coordinate formats without a laser range finder.
  • Demonstration Video: Available at https://sparcai.co/mobile.
  • CEO Quote: “Getting there wasn’t straightforward; delivering reliable navigation and target location fully offline, on a standard handset, without extra sensors or bolt‑on hardware, is a much harder technical problem than it looks.” – Anoosh Manzoori, CEO.
  • U.S. Market Expansion: Initiating registration of a U.S. subsidiary to streamline eligibility for defense bids and tenders, enhancing ability to sell into the United States.

Notable Quotes

  • “With nearly every soldier now carrying a mobile device, the opportunity to deploy SPARC AI on phones is on the same order of magnitude as our drone opportunity.” – Anoosh Manzoori, CEO.
