ANELLO Photonics is a leading developer of inertial navigation solutions based on the company’s disruptive SiPhOG (Silicon Photonics Optical Gyroscope) technology. UST is delighted to welcome ANELLO Photonics on board as a supplier partner, and we will be highlighting their unique solutions and capabilities across our channels over the next 12 months.
We’ve just launched ANELLO’s UST supplier profile, which has been written and built by our team in collaboration with the company. The Platinum profile showcases their inertial navigation systems (INS) and inertial measurement units (IMU), which deliver accuracy and reliability paired with an unprecedented reduction in cost and SWaP (size, weight and power) footprint.

The ANELLO X3 is the world’s smallest and lightest high-performance three-axis optical gyroscope IMU. The cutting-edge inertial measurement solution utilizes three separate SiPhOG units, each with its own independent six-axis redundant IMU sensor, CPU and power subsystem.
The ANELLO X3, when integrated with ANELLO’s sophisticated AI algorithms, forms a powerful navigation solution that excels in GPS-denied environments. This combination delivers exceptional low-drift and low-noise performance, enabling unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), unmanned surface vessels (USVs), and ground-based robots to maintain reliable operations even when faced with GPS jamming or spoofing.
The system’s resilience ensures continuous and accurate navigation in challenging conditions, significantly enhancing the capabilities and reliability of autonomous platforms across air, land, and sea applications.
The ANELLO IMU+ is a rugged IMU solution designed to withstand high levels of shock and vibration and wide temperature range, while delivering the high reliability and performance necessary for demanding robotics applications in both commercial and defense sectors.
The IP68-rated unit features the same fault-tolerant triple-redundancy design as the ANELLO X3 and offers two CAN or serial RS-232 interfaces for easy integration into a wide range of platforms.
The ANELLO GNSS INS is designed to provide long-term GPS-level accurate navigation under GNSS-denied conditions such as jamming and extreme multipath. Based around a dual-antenna RTK-capable GNSS engine and our state-of-the-art SiPhOG technology, it features AI-powered sensor fusion capabilities that can react to a variety of dynamic conditions.
The industrial-grade unit is IP68-rated and also offers reliable protection against chemicals, salt spray and solar radiation, making it ideal for indoor and outdoor robotics and autonomous vehicle applications such as agriculture, construction and ADAS.
The ANELLO GNSS-INS evaluation kit (EVK) allows developers and system integrators to explore the capabilities of ANELLO’s advanced silicon photonic inertial technology. Providing sustained centimeter-level accuracy in conditions where more expensive reference-grade systems degrade, the kit is ideal for demanding autonomous vehicle and ADAS applications.
The kit provides everything you need to get started, including two dual band GNSS antennas and all required cables, and offers Ethernet, CAN, USB and serial interfaces for easy integration.
