Main navigation OUR WORK BUSINESS AREAS NEWS ABOUT CAREERS CONTACT US The Draper Approach Defining the State of Practice Ideas & Research We work closely with academia and industry to identify the discoveries and new technologies that are solution enablers. Concept Our knowledge of how our customers will use a product—including their environment and operational constraints—informs how we conceptualize the solution. Design & Prototype Our modeling and simulation capabilities support rapid incorporation of new ideas and user feedback into virtual systems, demonstrable solutions, and fielded prototypes. Transition End-use of a product informs how we approach its transition to the field. We work with outside companies to prepare our prototype design for high-volume mass production, or can produce the device in-house when only limited quantities are needed. Support Our time spent in the field with sponsors provides them with critical technical support and provides us with valuable insight into the future needs of those customers. Access our Capabilities From outer space to inner cells, wherever engineered solutions are needed, we are there. We push boundaries and deliver the capabilities you need.
