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. Emulsified Bilgewater Treatment

    SBC: ADA TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: N03206

    In a ship's bilge, water mixes with oils, cleaners, and other contaminants to form a complex wastewater that can be harmful to the marine environment. Naval vessels carry oil/water separators (OWS) to prevent discharging oily wastes overboard. These OWS systems can remove oil from water; however, serious problems arise when other contaminants, e.g. detergents, are present. These ingredients cause ...

  2. Dual-Mode Broadband Surface Ship, Hull Mounted, Mine Avoidance Sonar

    SBC: Alaska Native Technologies, LLC            Topic: N04071

    Alaska Native Technologies, LLC (ANT) proposes to develop a hull-mounted sonar system that would be integrated into the DD(X) HF Mine Avoidance Bow Sonar processing chain to provide search and identification of small objects in the water column ±60° swaths in front of the vessel. The proposed approach will develop a dual-mode broadband sonar system, capable of operating in either wide-beam or n ...

  3. Laser Plate Butt Welding Project

    SBC: APPLIED THERMAL SCIENCES            Topic: N04142

    The proposed project addresses the Navy's need to reduce shipbuilding costs and improve delivery schedules by developing equipment and methods to dramatically improve the welding of plate panel butt joints. Comprising the outer hull, decks, and bulkheads of ships, these panels remain one of the highest-cost welding and inspection operations in shipbuilding. In addition to welding and inspection ...

  4. Highly Reliable LOX Pump for Vehicle Loading Operations

    SBC: Barber-Nichols, LLC            Topic: N/A

    The current Shuttle LOX loading pumps have several issues requiring high-maintenance and resulting in low reliability. The proposed pump system would mitigate NASA's concerns on reliability in this critical application by virtue of the seal arrangement tested in Phase 1 and the design of each pump to be able to meet the current fill rates in the event of one unit's failure. Phase I focussed on the ...

  5. Large Format Uncooled Focal Plane Array

    SBC: BFE Acquisition Sub II, LLC            Topic: E101

    Uncooled focal plane arrays have improved dramatically and array sizes of 320x240 elements in a 50-?m pitch are commercially available at affordable cost. Black Forest Engineering proposes to design a readout integrated circuit to allow fabrication of a large format 1024x768 element uncooled sensor. The significant innovation is the use of 0.18 ?m CMOS design rules, high duty cycle signal sampling ...

  6. Electro-Optic Imaging Fourier Transform Spectral Polarimeter

    SBC: BOULDER NONLINEAR SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: E101

    Boulder Nonlinear Systems, Inc. (BNS) proposes to develop an Electro-Optic Imaging Fourier Transform Spectral Polarimeter (E-O IFTSP). The polarimetric system is based on BNS? patented FTS technology, where ferroelectric liquid crystal (FLC) polarization switches control device operation. The designed system has simple drive/calibration requirement, and the capability to acquire complete Stokes po ...

  7. Real-Time Range Sensing Video Camera for Human/Robot Interfacing

    SBC: BOULDER NONLINEAR SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: T502

    In comparison to stereovision, it is well known that structured-light illumination has distinct advantages including the use of only one camera, being significantly less sensitive to background clutter, and not requiring the target object to have nonambiguous features. But because structured-light illumination requires a scanning process, it is inappropriate for humancomputer interfacing where the ...

  8. Nonlinear Optical Up-Converter for Eye-Safe Imaging

    SBC: COHERENT TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: N01003

    Active imaging in the short- and mid-wave infrared has well-known benefits versus shorter wavelengths: eye safety, better visibility through battlefield obscurants, high atmospheric transmission, and reduced background emission. However, there are no suitable imaging detectors at eye-safe wavelengths. In Phase I, CTI proposed a nonlinear sum-frequency generator (SFG) to convert an image at 1.55 mm ...

  9. High Energy Solid State Laser (SSL) for Ship Self-Defense

    SBC: COHERENT TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: N02139

    Ship defense requires 100 kW-1MW near diffraction-limited lasers with optimal wavelength and temporal format. Laser efficiency, beam quality, atmospheric transmission, thermal-blooming, and target interactions must be taken into account. Navy efforts to date have focused principally on the free electron laser (FEL) to fulfill this need due to the wide wavelength tuning range and projected high e ...

  10. Air-cooled High-power Blue-Green Laser

    SBC: COHERENT TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: N04049

    CTI's extensive experience with high energy, mil-spec laser systems makes us keenly aware that the environmental controls for such lasers can be larger, heavier, and more power-hungry than the lasers themselves. The next generation of airborne lasers must address this situation head-on in order for dramatic advances in laser technology to achieve widespread utilization. CTI proposes a fresh look ...
