Infleqtion, a leading quantum information company, has secured $11 million in funding from the US Department of Defense to accelerate the deployment of its Tiqker technology, a highly accurate and resilient timing solution for defense applications. The funding is part of the Accelerate the Procurement and Fielding of Innovative Technologies (APFIT) program, which aims to rapidly transition mature technologies into production. Infleqtion's CEO, Matthew Kinsella, stated that the ability to provide highly accurate and reliable timing is vital for defense operations, and this funding will enable the integration of Tiqker into defense systems faster, giving the US military a critical edge in maintaining operational advantage. The Tiqker technology leverages cutting-edge quantum technology to deliver next-generation optical clocks that can overcome the limitations of legacy time and frequency systems, offering unprecedented performance even in demanding environments.
