Partners

Consortium lead
Thales Alenia Space acts as Prime Contractor and leads project management and coordination. It is responsible for GNSS-based core technologies, including HAS implementation and the analysis and implementation of Galileo differentiators. In close collaboration with Valeo, Thales Alenia Space also performs the safety analysis and supports the fusion and control of the positioning techniques included in the project.

Consortium partner
Valeo contributes as an automotive Tier 1 supplier and vision-based positioning expert. It handles vision-based positioning using cutting-edge radar and lidar technologies, supports safety analysis, integrates the solution, and is responsible for the final demonstration in a Valeo vehicle.

Consortium partner
FDC is an independent Paris-based SME created in 1989 to support national and European institutions with technical expertise in space applications and security. FDC is responsible for OSNMA implementation and anti-spoofing resilient algorithms. It also supports market planning, business analysis, and commercialisation activities with the consortium, building on secure GNSS module experience from projects including FOSTER ITS, PATROL, and ACCURATE.

Consortium partner
STMicroelectronics contributes as a global semiconductor company and independent integrated device manufacturer. Its automotive portfolio includes the Teseo GNSS receiver family, designed to meet the quality and service-level requirements of the automotive market. STMicroelectronics provides a Teseo V/TeseoApp chipset tailored to the project needs and supports Thales Alenia Space with advanced GNSS receiver expertise.

Consortium partner
Thales SIX leads collaborative positioning and its integrity monitoring. Its expertise covers navigation warfare and disputed GNSS environments, including solutions that enhance GNSS resilience such as anti-jamming, spoofing detection, and spoofer localisation, as well as alternative positioning and navigation approaches without GNSS, including ranging-only collaborative positioning and GNSS-hybridised ranging positioning.
