Company Description:

Athena Controls is a market-leading developer and manufacturer of proprietary flight dynamics, engineering and control technologies and systems. We provide advanced systems and hardware - from design through integration - for civil and military applications that demand reliability and robustness far above the standard. Athena also has world-class manufacturing and production facilities that allow us to produce our flight control systems at very affordable rates. Athena's technological vision and expertise in control design has been proven on a number of platforms including the Shadow Tactical UAV, Mars Flyer Demonstrator, Loiter Attack Missile, Air Force Subscale Ariel Target UAV, Organic Air Vehicle, Golden Eye, mini-helicopter and X-31 Vector. This vision and know-how affects everything Athena does, from the proprietary design and development of advanced, fault-tolerant, flight control and sensor-fusion technologies for unmanned systems, to the design and implementation of software simulation tools, and robust, highly modular software. Athena Controls was established in 1998 to develop and commercialize high-performance flight control technologies. In 2001, we launched the first-generation of GuideStar, a fully integrated, flight control system that provides more performance, reliability, and capability in such a smaller, lower power, and lower cost product that it is revolutionizing the way air and ground vehicles are controlled. Athena Controls is an independent, privately held company, headquartered in Northern Virginia.
