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. Detecting Substandard, Nonconforming, Improperly Processed and Counterfeit Materiel

    SBC: VIBRANT CORP            Topic: DLA15C001

    Vibrant Corporation and Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) propose to apply Process Compensated Resonance Testing (PCRT) to the DLA's need for an NDI method to detect counterfeit, nonconforming and improperly processed materiel. PCRT collects and analyzes the resonance frequencies of a component to detect structural defects, characterize material, analyze population variation, monitor manufacturin ...

  2. Memristor-CMOS Analog Co-Processor for Efficient Computation of PDEs

    SBC: SPERO DEVICES, INC.            Topic: ST15C002

    Spero Devices is proposing design of a memristor-CMOS co-processor to implement analog Discrete Fourier Transforms (DFTs). The analog co-processor invokes spectral methods to solve a class of linear and non-linear partial differential equations (PDEs) arising in the scientific simulation of complex systems. Current PDE solution methods are inefficient and often intractable due to limitations assoc ...

  3. Using Magnetic Levitation for Non-Destructive Detection of Defective and Counterfeit Materiel

    SBC: Nano Terra, Inc.            Topic: DLA15C001

    The introduction of substandard or counterfeit materials into the DoD supply chain can have extremely expensive, and potentially life threatening, consequences. Current techniques used to detect nonconforming materiel can be destructive (e.g., manual sectioning and inspection of a part), time consuming and expensive (e.g., micro-computed tomography, ultrasound), or provide only limited informatio ...

  4. Sparse Information Orbit Estimation for Proliferated LEO

    SBC: A-TECH CORPORATION            Topic: HR001119S003522

    Texas A&M University (TAMU) and Applied Technology Associates (ATA) propose to develop and characterize a set of orbit determination and estimation algorithms for closely-spaced objects in low Earth orbit. The algorithms will span existing state-of-the-art-in-practice and possible state-of-the-art-in-research approaches. These algorithms will seek to extract maximal information out of existing spa ...

  5. Sparse Information Orbit Estimation for Proliferated LEO

    SBC: TAU TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: HR001119S003522

    The current Space Surveillance Network (SSN) is projected to soon be unable to track all manmade Low Earth Orbit (LEO) objects at the current rate of observation. Very large constellations of satellites will exponentially grow the number of LEO objects, and simply adding more sensors to the SSN to keep pace with the proliferation in LEO is a cost-prohibitive proposition. This research proposes to ...

  6. StampPump: a Postage-Stamp Sized Autonomous Glycemic Control Mechanism for Patients Suffering Glycemic Abnormalities as a Result of Critical Illnesses

    SBC: Thermalin Inc.            Topic: ST18C004

    StampPump is a postage-stamp-sized (27x27x6 mm), fully-self-contained, closed-loop insulin patch pump system that is filled at the factory with enough insulin to treat a person with T1- or trauma-induced hyperglycemia for a full week. The device is shelf stable for at least 90 days and so is compatible with critical-care or forward deployment use. We propose to augment this system with the ability ...

  7. Station-keeping using Perception and Relative Image-based Navigation and Tracking (SPRINT)

    SBC: SCIENTIFIC SYSTEMS CO INC            Topic: ST18C006

    SSCI and MIT propose to perform initial design and testing of an innovative tightly-coupled vison and GNC system for follower vehicles to achieve safe approach and station-keeping with the lead vehicle within some range tolerance and inside a 60 degree cone, under leader maneuvers and vehicle capability constraints. The resulting system is referred to as the SPRINT (Station-keeping using Perceptio ...

  8. Methane Harvesting for Seafloor Generation

    SBC: MAKAI OCEAN ENGINEERING INC            Topic: ST18C005

    Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are critical to DoD undersea missions including the future capabilities for sea and sub-sea forces communication and connectivity. AUV mission lengths are currently limited to 24 hours due to the prohibitive battery storage and AUV energy demands. Makai Ocean Engineering, with the University of Hawaii’s Hawaii Natural Energy Institute (HNEI), proposes to dev ...

  9. Variable Leg Length Ground Robot with Novel Prismatic Actuators

    SBC: TRITON SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: HR001119S003523

    Triton Systems, Inc. will work in collaboration with Professor Mark Yim of the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) to design a viable, robust ground robot with novel, reconfigurable actuators. This robot can reconfigure from a wheeled state to a legged state, enabling it to overcome tall obstacles and rough terrain. This ground robot will also be of a modular nature, able to be combined with others ...

  10. Aberration-correcting Topologically Optimized Metasurface (ATOM)

    SBC: PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC.            Topic: HR001119S003524

    Metalenses, with their ability to arbitrarily control the amplitude and phase of light across a band of wavelengths, have the potential to disrupt imaging and communication systems which rely on traditional lenses to focus, collimate, and otherwise manipulate optical signals, and are under increasing pressure to operate with reduced size and weight. We propose to design, develop, and demonstrate a ...
