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. Signature Reduction using Metasurfaces on group 1 UAV platforms

    SBC: NOTCH INC.            Topic: AF20ATCSO1

    Enemies use radar system to identify and target Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). To prevent detection, the UAV should be able to reduce its RF signature by reducing its Radar Cross Section (RCS). In addition, it is essential for the "blue force" UAV to be able to use its RF systems (radar/comms) while not being detected. Traditional Radar Absorbing Materials (RAM) are used to absorb radar's Electr ...

  2. Reliable Tactical Silent Power Generator for Austere Environments

    SBC: MESODYNE INC            Topic: AF20ATCSO1

    Mesodyne’s Light-Cell technology was developed at MIT and is being commercialized for the small UAV market. In this effort, the UAV generator is being adapted to meet the needs of dismounted warfighters. Mesodyne’s patented Light-Cell generator converts fuel into electricity via light. Specifically, a microcombustor heats a nanophotonic material to incandescence. The nanophotonic material, whi ...

  4. Three-Dimensional Tracking and Aimpoint Maintenance (3-D TrAM) Phase II

    SBC: MZA ASSOCIATES CORP            Topic: AF19AT005

    Target tracking and aimpoint maintenance are critical functions within a laser directed energy system.  Traditionally, the optical sensor is a conventional camera viewing an actively illuminated target.  In the absence of turbulence, it is still difficult to point the laser weapon to a specific hit spot when there are no features in the required direction.  Further, atmospheric turbulence scint ...

  6. Phase II: Real-Time Pilot Health, Performance Monitoring in RF-denied Environments

    SBC: BDYWR, LLC            Topic: AF19CT010

    Performance/Health monitoring applications use wearable physiological sensors to acquire physiological signals from the body. The sensed data is generally sent through wireless radio wave communication like Bluetooth for further analysis and inference. However, environments like an airplane cockpit/special operation are susceptible to external Radio Frequency (RF) interferences, as it can interfer ...

  7. Compact Heading Error Free Scalar (CHEFS) Magnetometer

    SBC: PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC.            Topic: AF20AT002

    Physical Sciences, Inc. (PSI), in collaboration with the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI), proposes a novel quantum magnetometer based on an atomic vapor capable of producing accurate readings of the total magnetic field (scalar magnitude) while operating in any orientation with respect to Earth’s magnetic field. All other atomic magnetometer approaches suffer from dead zones and heading e ...

  10. Solving the Quantum Interconnects Bottleneck; Scalable Photonic Control for Scalable Quantum Computers

    SBC: QUERA COMPUTING INCORPORATED            Topic: AF20AT003

    After decades of experimental and theoretical effort, quantum computers are reaching a scale that is no longer simulable by classical devices. While these quantum computers are still too noisy to beat classical supercomputers at tasks like prime number factorization, recent advances are already indicating that Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) devices have the potential for practical “quan ...
