SPARC AI Enhances Drone AI to Counter Jamming

April 29, 2025 – TheNewswire – Toronto, Canada – SPARC AI INC.  (CSE: SPAI) (OTCQB: SPAIF) (Frankfurt: 5OV0) (“SPAI” or the “Company”) developer of a breakthrough GPS-independent target acquisition system for drones, is pleased to provide an update on recent product enhancements, commercial progress, and R&D initiatives as it advances toward large-scale deployment.

Commercial Engagement with Western Military Customer

SPARC AI is actively engaged in multiple commercial discussions, including a major submission to a Western allied army. The submission showcases SPARC AI’s unique capability to perform precision geolocation without GPS, LiDAR, Laser or active sensors. The Company is awaiting the outcome and will provide further updates as developments occur.

Product Enhancements Underway

SPARC AI continues to invest in expanding its system capabilities to meet the evolving needs of military and security operations. Key features in development include:

• Infrared Target Acquisition: Integration of SPARC AI’s geolocation engine with infrared (IR) camera payloads to enable precise target acquisition in low-visibility and night operations. 

• GPS- and Controller-Loss Recovery: SPARC AI is developing a new autonomous “return to home” capability that activates even in the total absence of GPS and controller connectivity. This feature is specifically designed for deployment in GPS-denied and signal-jammed environments, where traditional drones are vulnerable to counter-UAV systems that disrupt navigation and communication to force failure or capture. Unlike conventional drones, which rely heavily on external signals for navigation, SPARC AI’s system operates independently — using onboard computation and spatial reasoning to return safely without requiring a fallback to GPS or controller data. This could allow SPARC AI-enabled drones to bypass or resist electronic warfare systems designed to disable UAVs through signal denial, offering a strategic edge in high-threat, contested operations. 

• Simultaneous Multi-Target Capture: Enhanced software architecture now enables the system to record and log multiple target coordinates in rapid succession, increasing mission efficiency and intelligence value. 

Neural Network AI Initiative for Autonomous Flight

In a major step forward, SPARC AI has commenced development of a neural network-based artificial intelligence engine. This next-generation system is designed to give drones spatial awareness and decision-making capabilities — all without GPS or external control. The AI engine will enable drones to navigate, acquire targets, and return safely, autonomously, even in communication- and signal-denied environments.

“We are building a platform designed for the future of unmanned operations where drones must operate independently, covertly, and with precision in the most challenging environments. Our latest product developments and AI initiative represent major leaps forward.” said CEO, Anoosh Manzoori.
