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. Dual-Filter Approach to Trust in Hybrid Human-Machine Systems

    SBC: INFINITY LABS LLC            Topic: T10

    Autonomous systems, when subjected to novel environments and tasks, suffer from issues with unknown unknowns. Under these circumstances, human intervention is frequently required. In deep space, such as a manned mission to Mars, communications with Earth require minutes round trip, effectively removing a typical safety net for the astronauts onboard when dealing with autonomous systems and sensors ...

  2. Climate Enhancing Resource Utilization Through Ultra-low-temperature, Electrolytic Carbon Dioxide Valorization on Mars

    SBC: Faraday Technology, Inc.            Topic: T7

    Supporting human life on long-tern space exploration missions, such as manned missions to the surface of Mars, require sustainable resource utilization with minimal support from Earth. In response to this need, NASArsquo;s in-situ resource utilization (ISRU) mission was put in place to provide a sustainable infrastructure for long-tern missions, such as exploration of extraterrestrial planets. One ...

  3. An Intelligent and Wireless Communication Enabled Plasma Probe for Full Scale Rocket Testing

    SBC: SPECTRAL ENERGIES LLC            Topic: T13

    The development of rocket propulsion systems requires rigorous testing. Technology with low-technology readiness levels (TRL) can be proven in small scaled down experiments. However, components and systems with higher-TRLs must be tested at full-scale conditions. These full-scale tests usually require numerous non-homogenous sensors and instrumentation meticulously placed over large distances that ...

  4. Automatic Mesh Adaptation Method for Aero-Thermal-Structural Design

    SBC: SPECTRAL ENERGIES LLC            Topic: N23AT001

    In response to the request for proposal (RFP) STTR topic N23A-T001, describes mesh generation and adaptivity as “significant bottlenecks” for current high-fidelity CFD. While methods for producing high-quality meshes exist, they require nontrivial and frequent human intervention. Moreover, these techniques result in a disconnect between the parametric model and the output mesh representation, ...

  5. Predictive and Adaptive Machine Control for Additive Manufacturing

    SBC: LASER FUSION SOLUTIONS LLC            Topic: N23AT004

    The metal laser powder bed fusion market has an amazing projected compound annual growth rate of 22.5% to 28% over the next 5 years, which is driven by the aerospace and biomedical industries. However, part certification remains an arduous process due to the numerous rouge defects and anomalies which can occur. In situ sensors have promised and been shown to be capable of spotting these defects;  ...

  6. Advanced High-Resolution Optical Sensor for Time-Resolved Measurements in Extreme Exhaust Plumes

    SBC: SPECTRAL ENERGIES LLC            Topic: N23AT005

    Exhaust plumes from high-temperature and high-velocity aircraft engines and rockets present a significant measurement challenge due to their extreme conditions. Current measurement techniques have limited spatial and temporal resolution and are often invasive, limiting the data that can be collected. To address this need, we propose the development of a compact, high-resolution, high-bandwidth opt ...

  7. Improved Electrochemical Machining of Next-Generation Alloys for Turbine Engine Components Through Enhanced Tool Design

    SBC: Faraday Technology, Inc.            Topic: N23AT019

    This project will enhance the electrochemical machining process by improving pulse-reverse waveform design to enable ECM on next-generation alloys such as niobium C103 and improve tool design predictions through ECM simulation. Phase I will create a proof-of-concept demonstration of the use of optimal control theory for improving pulse-reverse waveform design on a C103 alloy. Waveform design will ...

  8. CO2 Derived Nanomaterials for Naval Composites

    SBC: CORNERSTONE RESEARCH GROUP INC            Topic: N23AT020

    Carbon sequestration, the process of converting atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) into more benign and/or useful forms, continues to advance in efforts to mitigate the negative impacts of climate change. Climate change continues to be a disruptive force, adding to the concerns of maritime defense. It threatens the capacity to respond in the wake of emergencies due to increased demands on Naval forc ...

  9. SHARK (Student-focused Holistic Aquatic Robotics Kit) Aquatic Soft Robotic STEM Education Kit

    SBC: SPECTRAL ENERGIES LLC            Topic: N22AT023

    Bio-inspired swimming robots have shown promise in a wide range of applications due to their efficiency, speed, and stealth capability. To prepare our workforce for the Uncrewed Underwater Vehicles (UUV) technologies of tomorrow, we need to ensure that unique aspects of bio-inspired Navy specific robots—soft actuators, flexible materials, waterproofing, sensing/controls, periodic motion—are in ...

  10. Aerodynamics State Sensing for Hypersonic Flight Control using Plasma Sensors, Data Fusion, and Modeling

    SBC: SPECTRAL ENERGIES LLC            Topic: N23AT029

    The hypersonic flow regime introduces many unique phenomena (e.g., chemical disassociation, ablations, plasma, etc.), that make it difficult to understand the aerodynamic state (e.g., air speed, angle of attack (AOA), angle of sideslip (AOS), air density, air temperature, etc.) due to a lack of non-intrusive flight sensors that can survive the environment. However, for control, it is imperative to ...
