The lineage

Poseidon → KRSNA

KRSNA is Athena Dynamics' first vehicle: full engineering design, sim-flyable in the Poseidon simulator. It builds the team, the engineering method, and a path to revenue in harbour and hull inspection — on the way to the search it was named for.

Poseidon — proving ground

Runs today. Simulation and software-in-the-loop testbed.

KRSNA — the first project

Full design, sim-flyable. Builds the team, sets the method, opens a path to commercial revenue.

Poseidon

An Unreal Engine 5 simulator: 6-DOF vehicle dynamics, DVL-aided INS with an honest drift model, forward and scanning sonar, a full mission finite-state machine, and automatic evidence-pack logging. Running today.

Trident

A live surface-picture and maritime-domain software platform. Running today.

Buceros FPV drone simulator screenshot

Buceros — the method, proven

A high-altitude UAV training simulator — the proof that Athena's simulation and evidence method extends beyond undersea vehicles. Running today.

Why Krishna, why Dwaraka

A name, a motto, a search.

Tradition holds that Krishna's capital, Dwaraka, was reclaimed by the sea after he departed the world. Since the 1980s, marine archaeologists from India's National Institute of Oceanography have surveyed submerged structures off the Gujarat coast, long associated by tradition with that lost city — a mystery still not fully resolved. KRSNA carries the name because that search is the destination, not a footnote.
