The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY24 is not expected to be complete until March, 2025.

Download all SBIR.gov award data either with award abstracts (290MB) or without award abstracts (65MB). A data dictionary and additional information is located on the Data Resource Page. Files are refreshed monthly.

The SBIR.gov award data files now contain the required fields to calculate award timeliness for individual awards or for an agency or branch. Additional information on calculating award timeliness is available on the Data Resource Page.

  1. Artificial Intelligence (AI) based algorithms for predictive maintenance using NOAA data-sets for renewable energy assets

    SBC: 60Hertz Incorporated            Topic: 92

    This research aims to develop decision support tools for better maintenance and planning of renewable energy generation and storage assets using atmospheric, local weather, and on-ground environmental data blended with site-, regional- and national-generation data. The study will use a combination of these data to understand the relationship between non-cloud cover based atmospheric conditions and ...

  2. Innovative UV Biofouling Mitigation Technique for In-water Optical Sensors

    SBC: BIOSPHERICAL INSTRUMENTS, INC.            Topic: 93

    This project will build upon research conducted during a Phase I SBIR effort, which showed that germicidal UV-C radiation emitted by LEDs installed inside of submerged radiometers can reach levels known to prevent biofouling (accumulation of biological matter) on their external optical surfaces (windows, diffusers) without affecting the instrument’s measurements. This technology will improve the ...

  3. Enabling Data Measurements Using Smart Buoy Technology On Fishing Gear

    SBC: Blue Ocean Gear Inc.            Topic: 93

    As global efforts toward ocean health have gained momentum, it is critical to generate high quality ocean data for industries that operate and/or manage ocean resources. Blue Ocean Gear has demonstrated how Smart Buoys equipped with sensors can be useful to fisheries by tracking gear and providing enhanced marine condition awareness. Building on Phase I efforts, this project will highlight the opp ...

  4. Flood Location and Alerting

    SBC: INTELLISENSE SYSTEMS INC            Topic: 92

    To address NOAA’s need for technologies conducive to a weather-ready nation, Intellisense Systems, Inc. (Intellisense) proposes, in Phase II, to advance the development of a new Flood Location and Alerting (FLOA) software system proven feasible in Phase I. FLOA is based on integrating data from IoT flood sensors such as Intellisense’s AWARE, combined with publicly available data, into Waze, a ...

  5. Infrared Polarimetric Wave Imaging (I-PWI) for Passive Remote Sensing of Sea State

    SBC: Arete Associates            Topic: 91

    The ocean surface is a dynamic and challenging work environment where knowledge of sea state and surface currents is critical for safe and effective operations. We propose to develop a new Infrared Polarimetric Wave Imaging (I-PWI) sea state sensor. I-PWI will be deployed on offshore structures such as oil platforms and wind turbines. The technology complements existing monitoring capabilities inc ...

  6. Detecting and Classifying Marine Mammals in Infrared Video Using AI

    SBC: TOYON RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: 93

    We propose to develop a system that can automatically detect marine mammals day and night for extended periods of time using infrared video cameras and custom software. We plan to make use of commercial long wave infrared (LWIR) cameras. For vessel‐based data collections we will use a custom camera developed by Toyon that stabilizes imagery electronically using data from a low‐cost inertial na ...

  7. Auto-Transcription for Citizen Science

    SBC: INFERLINK CORP            Topic: 95

    We propose to implement a system for automatic transcription of tables from handwritten or typed document images. In phase I we developed an end-to-end system design and showed the feasibility of our approach with a working prototype to take document images as inputs and extract a digital, tabular output. In phase II we will fully implement the end to-end system. Our work will focus on three tasks ...

  8. Machine Intelligence for Space Weather (MINTS)

    SBC: NEXTGEN FEDERAL SYSTEMS LLC            Topic: 95

    NextGen Federal Systems (NextGen), a Small Business Concern (SBC), is excited to propose a powerful software package, coupled database, and a machine-learning (ML) workflow to support streamlined evaluation and research-to-operations (R2O) of space weather ML models and techniques. In response to the NOAA Effect of Space Weather subtopic (NOAA SBIR 9.5), we propose the Machine Intelligence for Spa ...

  9. In-Situ Space Weather Analysis

    SBC: ORBOTIC SYSTEMS INC            Topic: 95

    The goal of this Phase 1 SBIR is for Orbotic Systems to prove the feasibility of generating in-situ, global, ionospheric­thermospheric neutral density and wind ion data on a near real-time basis. Orbotic Systems is developing an instrument called WIND (Wind Ion Neutral Density). This proposal leverages Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 7 and 8 hardware and software as the basis to develop a new ge ...

  10. Low-Cost, Low-Power Sensor Nodes for Monitoring Air Quality Impacted by Wildfire Smoke

    SBC: INTERLINK ELECTRONICS, INC            Topic: 91

    "The impact of wildfires on air quality in the surrounding hundreds of miles has been discussed since the ‘70s. There have been a number of studies investigating the severity of the impact of wildfire smoke on the health of people in affected areas that have shown that hundreds of thousands of people die as a consequence of smoke-tainted air. Many studies focus on the impact of particulate matte ...
