Getting excited for our new Titusville Campus that will serve as a Strategic Enhanced Ground Test Facility in Florida! The SEGTF is the future home to dynamic and environmental equipment for supporting development of U.S. strategic systems. Check out the link below to learn more!
We are excited to introduce DraperSPARX, a pioneering partnership program to empower technology companies to rapidly prototype, validate and prove new technologies for scaled government adoption. Startups and small businesses are innovation engines that need a champion to nurture, mature and commercialize emergent technologies to make them available to the Department of Defense, U.S. government and the defense sector. DraperSPARX is that champion!
Hearing loss affects more than 250 million people worldwide. To address the condition, Draper developed a MEMS-based implantable drug-delivery device over a decade ago. This past week IEEE Spectrum hailed Draper’s device as one of 40 that has been powering a revolution in microelectromechanical systems—MEMS.
Draper recently hosted leaders from the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA). In 2023, we signed an Other Transaction Authority (OTA) agreement with BARDA, which is valued at up to $90.5M over a five-year period. The overall objective of the OTA is to advance the scientific understanding of illness and injury resulting from exposure to a broad range of CBRN threats. “We’re working on capabilities to protect the nation against high-priority threats and accelerate our response to future threats,” said Roger Odegard, the Draper OTA Program Manager.
Excited to announce the opening of our new engineering and operations campus in Utah to serve our aerospace and defense customers and enhance our support of the Air Force Nuclear Weapons Center at Hill Air Force Base and other Department of Defense customers in the surrounding area.
Human Systems Engineering is the art and science of designing systems that optimize the interaction between humans and technology. Read more about our human systems capabilities and how we use those diverse skillsets for our customers.
How do we facilitate a broader use of fuzzing to detect software flaws in the ever-evolving landscape of cyber threats? Read about how Draper's cyber engineers are working on the development of the Vader Modular Fuzzer (VMF). VMF is now available to the public on GitHub and has a companion GitHub repository for early VMF research concepts.
Draper has been selected by the United States Air Force as one of 17 contractors to design, develop, test and deliver anti-tamper systems to protect critical program information and technologies from adversarial tamper efforts. Our expertise and long history in the national security sector equips us perfectly for this. We are looking forward to the journey!
ANNOUNCEMENT: The Draper Museum is now reopened! The public is welcome every Friday from noon to 4:30 p.m. at our Cambridge campus located in Kendall Sq. The newly expanded Draper Museum features a spectacular array of artifacts from our history of innovation, some of which are on public display for the first time.
