The Polariton Interferometer was developed as a novel inertial navigation system, exemplifying navigation and surveillance communications. Current technologies require signals from a complex satellite and ground station network to correct measurement errors.

The Polariton Interferometer provides orientation information in a compact device design, allowing vehicles to operate independently of signals.
