The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY23 is not expected to be complete until September, 2024.

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. Additive Manufacturing and Thin Film Coating Development for Lightweight Directed Energy Reflective Optics

    SBC: OPTIMAX SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: MDA13T009

    Optimax Systems, Inc. and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) propose a collaborative effort, led by Optimax, with two focus areas. Optimax will focus on thin film coating development for optical components to: increase laser damage threshold of optics used in high energy laser systems, investigate methods for laser hardening of sensors, and model and predict the distortion of lightweigh ...

  2. Advanced Data Association Algorithms to Address Emerging Threats

    SBC: ARCHARITHMS INC            Topic: MDA19T001

    The proposed approach provides innovative sensor data association algorithms capable of performing correct data association in multi-target tracking environments with one or more sensors. Current air and missile threats have the ability to fly non-ballistic, highly maneuvering hypersonic trajectories, and the ability to maintain closely spaced trajectories. Improved detection/track association is ...

  3. Advanced Data Association Algorithms to Address Emerging Threats

    SBC: BLACK RIVER SYSTEMS COMPANY, INC.            Topic: MDA19T001

    At the core of the challenge facing MDA today is one of adversary air and missile threats being able to fly non-ballistic, highly maneuvering hypersonic trajectories all while having the capability of close formation flight of multiple missile threats. This problem results in challenges related to detection of the threat targets as well as the resulting filtering and data association problem. Ther ...

  6. Corrosion Protection of High-Value Test&Evaluation Assets

    SBC: ESPIN TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: MDA13T010

    This STTR Phase I proposal proposes to design and develop reactive filter media using nanofiber technology to capture corrosion inducing particulate matter present in coastal region air. The fibrous filter media will be functionalized using ion exchange chemistry which is known to react with salt ions. The media will be characterized for its filtration performance, resistance to airflow, and dus ...

  7. Decision Making under Uncertainty

    SBC: GCAS, Inc.            Topic: MDA13T001

    The objectives of our Phase I effort are to characterize target sensor measurement uncertainties and feature extraction uncertainties; determine how and where, in the processing chain, these affect target discrimination and classification; show how the different sources of uncertainty lead to the cumulative uncertainty in the final decision; provide techniques that will be instrumental to optimizi ...

  8. Decision Making under Uncertainty

    SBC: GCAS, Inc.            Topic: MDA13T001

    Our proposed second order uncertainty (SOU) product is a decision making software solution that addresses the problem of providing accurate and precisely defined decision courses of action (COAs) of complex, time-constrained problems in a fraction of the time required by alternative methods striving to achieve the same level of precision. Complex decision situations can deal with large volume of ...

  9. 3D-Printed Lightweight Optics for Directed Energy Systems

    SBC: OPTIMAX SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: MDA13T009

    A significant cost and processing time reduction is realized by replacing the difficult manufacturing and machining processes associated with ceramic substrates, such as Silicon Carbide (SiC) or siliconized-SiC, with additive manufacturing or three dimensional (3D) printing. Along with reducing cost and time, additive manufacturing extends the capabilities of lightweight optics to meet more deman ...

  10. 3D-Printed Lightweight Optics for Directed Energy Systems

    SBC: OPTIMAX SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: MDA13T009

    It is proposed that using additive manufacturing to fabricate a lightweight optic would result in a weight reduction of the optical system, since 3D-printing provides superior flexibility in the geometric design of the lightweight optic. In addition, the conventional approach to lightweight an optic requires machining of mechanically-hard optical substrates such as SiC, which is time-intensive an ...
