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. Data-Driven Hypersonic Turbulence Modeling Toolset

    SBC: ATA ENGINEERING, INC.            Topic: N22AT016

    Development of hypersonic aircraft and weapon systems has become a critical focus for the Department of Defense to maintain global strike and projection of force capabilities. Despite decades of research, traditional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods are either incapable of adequately predicting complex features in hypersonic flows or too expensive to be of practical use for vehicle desig ...

  2. Passive Acoustic Cued Electro-Optical (ACE-O) DAA for sUAS

    SBC: SCIENTIFIC APPLICATIONS & RESEARCH ASSOCIATES, INC.            Topic: N21AT003

    Detecting and Avoiding (DAA) manned aircraft from small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUAS) remains the unsolved problem for safe integration of sUAS into civil airspaces where Navy UAS must pay Due Regard to the laws of civil aviation. The difficulties are manifold. The solution requires both ultra-low SWaP sensors that track aircraft over long ranges, providing 360o field-of-regard (FOR), and often ...

  3. Real-time Intelligent Planning and Control System (RIPACS)

    SBC: Perceptronics Solutions, Inc.            Topic: N21BT021

    RIPACS will provide a novel capability for small UAVs, specifically Group 4 5 vehicles such as the MQ8 Fire Scout, extending their autonomy from pre mission planning through to landing. Being able to fly through a series of waypoints is a well established capability, but human operators are required to layout plans, update plans based on incoming data and react to contingencies. Requiring humans ...

  4. Improved High-Frequency Bottom Loss Characterization

    SBC: HEAT, LIGHT, AND SOUND RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: N17AT026

    The existing HFBL (High-Frequency Bottom Loss) database has been recognized to be unsatisfactory due to its lack of physical underpinning and inability to provide consistent performance across frequency and space. The aim of the project is to replace the HFBL database with a geoacoustic model that leads to a smooth transition to the LFBL (Low-Frequency Bottom Loss) model at 1 kHz. To this end, thi ...

  5. 3D Acoustic Model for Geometrically Constrained Environments

    SBC: HEAT, LIGHT, AND SOUND RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: N16AT018

    The goal of this work is to demonstrate and validate a 3D acoustic propagation model for use in constrained environments such as harbors. The 3D model will be used to model system performance for 1) passive sonar, 2) active sonar, and 3) acoustic communications networks. This latter application is of primary importance in this Phase II Extended proposal. To accomplish these goals are sequence of f ...

  6. Integrated Reduced-Expansion Microchannel Cooling for SiC Power Modules

    SBC: Micro Cooling Concepts, Inc            Topic: N21AT012

    Rising demand for electrified equipment in next-gen naval systems is increasing the pressure on power systems to achieve high power densities. To improve modularity, scalability, and size, weight, and power (SWaP), the Office of Naval Research (ONR) has pursued the development of Power Electronic Building Blocks (PEBBs) for over 25 years. ONR is currently attempting to develop SiC-based DC-DC powe ...

  7. Back Channel for LVC Training

    SBC: TOYON RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: N20AT024

    To support Navy Live, Virtual, and Constructive (LVC) training for surface fleets during periods of long transit, the Navy would like to implement an alternative communication path that can link shore-based trainers and simulation capabilities with trainers and training systems afloat. To support full spectrum training during the training events, there is a desire to selectively turn off communica ...

  8. Air-Sea Thermal Energy Harvesting on an Arctic Buoy

    SBC: SEATREC, INC.            Topic: N20AT023

    The goal of this effort is to develop the Arctic Power Station (APS), a rugged and clean energy source that will fundamentally alter the logistics and economics of Arctic observing system operations.  Engineers and scientists from Seatrec and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) will collaborate on a novel air-sea thermal energy harvesting system optimized to exploit the wintertime a ...

    SBC: MAYACHITRA, INC.            Topic: N20AT007

    In Phase II, the machine learning (ML) model update strategies that were developed as part of Phase I efforts will be refined for different use-case scenarios. This includes developing and validating mathematical models on both the standard image/video datasets and the provided representative periscope imagery data. A system prototype will then be developed to enable timely vessel detection, ident ...

  10. The use of modulated radiation pressure in target detection and classification

    SBC: HEAT, LIGHT, AND SOUND RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: N21AT010

    In the past few years, we have experimentally demonstrated that modulated radiation pressure (MRP) can be used to extract classification clues such as resonant frequencies, mode shapes and sizes for targets of interest.  These experiments were carried out at Washington State University (WSU) between (2015-2020) in water tanks involving scaled targets.  Using a 15-cm acoustic lens, MRP was appl ...
