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. CPS: Creative Problem Solver

    SBC: SMART INFORMATION FLOW TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: N16AT002

    Military systems operate in complex, adversarial environments where their initial planned operations are often overcome by events, but soldiers use those systems in creative ways to achieve their mission objectives. For example, complex ground robotic systems that were initially deployed for surveillance and explosive ordinance disposal have instead been used as decoys, ammunition carriers, and ot ...

  2. Multimodal AI Air Traffic Sensor Fusion for Automated Surveillance and Alerting ("Bird Brain")

    SBC: THRUST AI LLC            Topic: X22DOTCSO1

    Warfighters operating in forward-deployed and stateside airspace environments lack central situational awareness and decision support capabilities which detract from mission-critical functions including flight safety, air traffic management, integrated ai

  3. The Use of Hydrogen for Defect Reduction in Large Format Infrared Detector Materials

    SBC: AMETHYST RESEARCH INC            Topic: MDA11T002

    In Phase I we demonstrated a novel in-situ cleaning technique based on UV-activated surface reactions involving ozone and hydrogen to remove organic adsorbates and chemically-bonded impurities, e.g oxides, from the substrate surface. In Phase II the program will develop this process to significantly decrease the density of material defects in large-format, infrared, focal-plane arrays. Electrica ...

  4. HIDEHO: HIerarchical DistributEd Heterogenous Optimization

    SBC: SMART INFORMATION FLOW TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: AF21BT001

    Large-scale military and civilian planning problems are (1) distributed – decision-making is spread across multiple organizations, including organizations that must employ information that they are unable or unwilling to share; (2) heterogeneous – the domains of optimization and local criteria for optimality differ – and (3) hierarchical – higher levels of authority solve abstract versions ...

  5. Advanced Infrared (IR) Sensor Components for Missile Defense

    SBC: NANO LIGHT            Topic: MDA06T011

    The objective of this proposal is to further develop IV-VI PbSnSe detectors epitaxially grown on Si substrates. The motivation of fabricating IV-VI detector arrays on Si is based on the following advantages of IV-VI Pb-salt semiconductors. (1) The large dielectric constant helps screen and localize the defect related effects. (2) The epitaxial material on Si is highly uniform, and thus the cutoff ...

  6. Freeform Optical Systems for Defense System Optics

    SBC: Third Wave Systems, Inc.            Topic: MDA07T006

    Freeform optical surfaces offer advantages over axisymmetric surfaces in the ability to reduce optical sizes, increase performance and reduce aberrations. However, the description, fabrication and metrology of these surfaces can be difficult and costly, prohibiting their ability to achieve their full potential. Fabrication of these surfaces can be difficult since they are not axisymmetric and have ...

  7. Reverberation Mitigation of Speech

    SBC: MINERVA SYSTEMS & TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: AF15AT17

    Automatic speech recognition (ASR) technology is in wide use today and has been successfully integrated into a number of applications. Although there are also many potential applications for automatic speaker identification (SID), SID accuracy rates are generally not sufficient for widespread use in practical applications. For high accuracy ASR and SID, the microphone must be located near the talk ...

  8. Computational tools for reliable prediction of complex hypersonic flows

    SBC: Next Frontier LLC            Topic: AF17AT014

    In order to enable reliable predictions based on full scale vehicle simulations relevant to high-speed ISR missions, detailed interactions among various nonequilibrium physical phenomena and their coupling to turbulent flow structures, characterized by a broad range of length/time scales, need to be accurately modeled. Through this Phase II STTR project new computational tools for reliable and eff ...

  9. Detection and Recognition of Airborne Chemicals Onboard (DRACO) a SUAV

    SBC: RPX TECHNOLOGIES INC            Topic: AF19AT016

    This proposal seeks funding to continue the development of the Detection and Recognition of Airborne Chemicals Onboard (DRACO) a small unmanned air vehicle (SUAV).  This system combines an innovative technique of fluorescence signal transduction with melanin-inspired organic semiconductor (MIOS) materials to provide a reconfigurable, expandable, and highly sensitive artificial olfaction sensor.  ...

  10. A Nanoporous Aerogel for Improvement of In-Ear Hearing Protection

    SBC: OTO-Biomechanics, LLC            Topic: AF21ATCSO1

    Despite the availability of active hearing protection devices, noise-proof helmets, and earmuffs, passive in-ear hearing protection devices are still widely used by military personnel in loud work environments and during operations due to their versatility and low economic cost. While these passive devices offer adequate sound pressure attenuation, an undesired effect persists known as the occlusi ...
