5G is adopting low Earth orbit and geostationary satellite networks for global connectivity. Mobility applications require a highly directional, scanning user antenna to connect to these networks. We have commercialized a novel, scanning antenna technology, leveraging liquid crystal and LCD manufacturing to enable mass adoption and connectivity to these networks.
