What we build
Instruments that go to sea.
Four products in the field, a machine shop under the same roof as the engineers who design for it, and twenty-plus years of programs behind both.
Discovering Unknown Problems
Trident Research was established to combine applied research with disciplined systems engineering to solve challenging problems that make an impact on our world.
Rarely do we have the luxury of accepting the status quo or standardized way of doing something, because we choose to solve the hard problems. Often our innovation creates something that did not exist before. As a smaller, solutions-based engineering firm, this requires our team to strategically work across a broad spectrum of responsibilities. Each of our team members truly lives up to the very definition of an engineer by retaining a holistic approach to include design, rapid prototyping, manufacturing, field operations, and sustainment for new and legacy systems.
