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. High Conductance Thermal Interface Material for Use in Space Applications

    SBC: NanoTechLabs Inc.            Topic: AF121060

    ABSTRACT: In this Phase I Air Force SBIR program, NanoTechLabs (NTL)will develop a space-qualifiable, high-conductance, thermal interface material (TIM) for use in space-based flanged heat-pipe-to-heat-pipe joints or for mounting relatively small area units with stiff baseplates and high power loads. NanoTechLabs will exploit its novel carbon nanotube vertical array material and manufacturing pro ...

  2. Floral Disruptor- Directed Energy Weed Abatement and Prevention Tool

    SBC: OCEANIT LABORATORIES INC            Topic: AF121207

    ABSTRACT: Leveraging expertise in plant physiology, biology, electro-optics, rf, electrical engineering, physics and signal processing, Oceanit proposes to develop an innovative device to prevent and control unwanted plants and weeds. BENEFIT: Oceanit's directed energy weed abatement and control system will provide a non-toxic method to effectively kill and stop the growth of unwanted plan ...

  3. Feature Identification from Unresolved Electro-optical Data

    SBC: Pacific Defense Solutions, LLC            Topic: AF121010

    ABSTRACT: Space situational awareness is often limited by the ability of sensors to produce resolved data on space objects. Large objects cannot be resolved with small low-cost telescopes; objects in geo-synchronous orbit are too remote to be resolved. The best hope of ending these limitations is to make it possible to determine important features of space objects from unresolved data, typically ...

  4. Daytime Detection and Tracking of Objects in a Geosynchronous or Geo-transfer Orbit

    SBC: Pacific Defense Solutions, LLC            Topic: AF121011

    ABSTRACT: In this research PDS plans to use existing telescopes and sensors at MSSS with minor modifications to detect and track Geosynchronous or Geo-transfer vehicles during daylight. The main obstacle to viewing satellites in daylight is the bright sky foreground. The bright foreground problem has been solved in the field of LWIR astronomy where the foreground signal is due to thermal self-e ...

  5. Deceiving the Deceivers: Active Counterdeception for Software Protection

    SBC: GALOIS, INC.            Topic: OSD11IA2

    DoD operations and infrastructure increasingly depends on software, which makes it an attractive target for our adversaries. Not surprisingly, deception plays a central role in most cyberattacks. To better protect these critical systems, we propose to design and build an"active counterdeception"software protection system which we call CYCHAIR that both incorporates the right sensors, and enables ...

  6. Uncued Faint Object Detection in LEOand GEO

    SBC: Pacific Defense Solutions, LLC            Topic: AF121009

    ABSTRACT: This research plans to use existing MSSS sensors to investigate methods to detect and track faint objects (greater than or equal to 14th visual magnitude) in any orbit around the Earth using ground-based electro-optics sensors, without prior knowledge of the object's orbit. The basic technique is to image part of the sky with a wide field-of-view detector. Processing algorithms w ...

  7. Kinetic Energy Control Technologies for Explosively-dispersed Fragments

    SBC: CORVID TECHNOLOGIES, LLC            Topic: AF121107

    ABSTRACT: The US Air Force (AF) is increasingly being required to conduct operations in complex environments with friendly forces or noncombatants in relatively close proximity to targets. Currently there is no single weapon which can offer a satisfactory range of lethal effects on the variety of targets within urban and asymmetric warfare scenarios. To minimize collateral damage the current mo ...

  8. Multi-Sensor Data Compression

    SBC: Technical research Associates, Inc.            Topic: AF121140

    ABSTRACT: The compression of hyperspectral data is made more difficult by the requirement that the compressed data adequately serve a variety of diverse applications. Lossy compression methods will be evaluated with the requirements for tactical HSI analysis in mind. We propose to investigate two compression approaches, one based on sampling and reconstruction and the other on a fractal descrip ...

  9. Winning the 'Race to the Bottom' by Changing the Rules: Inhibiting Malicious Hardware Activation through Attack Incompatibility

    SBC: GALOIS, INC.            Topic: OSD10IA1

    Many hardware trojans depend on (a) the ability of an attacker to have an accurate model of the target system and of key software used on that system and (b) identification of one or more deterministic trigger conditions with low observability (i.e., conditions that evade detection by traditional scan- or ATPG-based testing methodologies but that can be exercised on demand via external stimuli). ...

  10. High Efficiency Up/Down Converting Nanoparticles

    SBC: VOXTEL, INC.            Topic: AF11BT24

    ABSTRACT: To address the need for covert, transparent optical taggants, which can upconvert and downconvert greater than 100 nm when stimulated by either 830 nm or 1064 nm laser light, a series of wide bandgap doped metal oxide nanoparticles will be developed and demonstrated. In Phase I, lanthanide-doped core-shell nanocrystals will be fabricated that are sufficiently small (e.g.
