DragShield (patent-pending) was entered and selected as one of the Top 100 Entries in the Create the Future 2017 Design Contest. It is an aerodynamic device (see image on left) placed behind a pickup truck cab to reduce the drag on the vehicle which in turn increases the vehicle’s fuel economy. Launched in 2002, Create the Future Design Contest by NASA Tech Briefs is to help stimulate and reward engineering innovation from engineers, entrepreneurs and students worldwide.
