Summary

About

About Locus Lock

Locus Lock implements GNSS signal processing in software on general-purpose compute, allowing receiver behaviour to be updated as signals, threats and platform requirements change. Its positioning stack combines configurable radio hardware, multi-frequency and multi-constellation processing, and inertial inputs for operation in urban, jammed, spoofed or otherwise degraded environments.

The company spun the technology out of the University of Texas at Austin Radionavigation Lab and has commercialized it since 2023. LEO100 has been evaluated for unmanned and defence applications, while the Leo200 evaluation platform is scheduled to launch in October 2026. Customer programmes span air, ground, maritime and space systems.
