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. Miniature Directional Microphone for Handheld Automatic Speech Recognition in Military Environments

    SBC: Adherent Technologies, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    The Phraselator, a handheld automatic translation device, currently uses a cardioic microphone as an input for automatic speech recognition (ASR). This microphone is highly vulnerable to performance degradation in typical noisy military environments and,thus, there is a need for an improved transducer for this application. We propose to develop a new directional microphone that is immune to extr ...

  2. Crested Tunnel Barriers for Fast, High Density, Nonvolatile Memory Devices

    SBC: ADVANCED FUEL RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: N/A

    Crested multi-layer tunnel barriers have been proposed, which offer a revolutionary solution to overcome density to speed trade-offs characteristic of present data storage technologies. Practical implementation of the proposed technology will involve useof thin film materials that are readily manufacturable and CMOS-compatible. A critical need exists for experimental verification of the theoreti ...

  3. Real-Time Optical Smoke Meters

    SBC: ADVANCED FUEL RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: N/A

    The SAE smoke number has been an important measurement for prevention of black, sooty plumes in military and commercial aviation. The current method, however, requires the use of a complex extraction system to bring engine exhaust through a filter paper,and then requires a person to remove the soot covered filter and perform a measurement in an optical reflectometer to determine the smoke number. ...

  4. Micromachined Deformable Mirrors for Beam Control and Imaging Applications

    SBC: AGILOPTICS            Topic: N/A

    Micromachined deformable mirrors are being commercialized by the contractor and applied to DOD related projects due to their light weight, fast response, small size, and inexpensive fabrication costs. During Phase II, the contractor and university teamwill demonstrate a novel projection system incorporating a micromachined deformable mirror, and develop a complete adaptive optics system based upo ...

  5. Spatially Modulated Reflective Membranes for High-Dynamic-Range Wavefront Control

    SBC: AGILOPTICS            Topic: N/A

    Diffractive wavefront control has been demonstrated as a viable technique for high-dynamic-range laser wavefront control. Unfortunately, most conventional programmable diffractive elements, like liquid crystals and segmented mirror arrays, are damagedwhen illuminated with high-power laser light. The proposed work would investigate approaches for scaling membrane deformable mirrors to provide hig ...

  6. Gun Launched Guided Projectile

    SBC: AZTECH ENGINEERING, LLC            Topic: N/A

    Conventional medium caliber projectiles fall short of desired effectiveness due to factors such as aiming inaccuracy, component manufacturing tolerances, wind effects, etc. A guided projectile that could obviate these factors would substantially improvehit probability, increasing effective range and lethality. Commensurately longer standoff distances also increase warfighter survivability. Furthe ...

  7. Motion Based Video ATR

    SBC: DIGITAL TRAFFIC SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: N/A

    The goal of our proposed research is autonomous real-time detection, classification, and location of targets from a video image. DTS Inc (www.dtsits.com) proposes to combine its robust software in real-time video tracking and classification of vehicles forthe transportation industry with a new classifier (From our subcontractor, Quasar International, www.quasarintl.com) to develop a true ATR video ...

  8. Shear Stress Sensor Using Shape Memory Films

    SBC: DOMINCA LLC            Topic: N/A

    There is a need for a low profile, simple, accurate, localized, responsive sensor to measure shear stress in fluid flow. The unusual properties of the shape memory alloy Ni2MnGa suggest it could make a very sensitive sensor. In recent years,single-crystal films of this alloy have been grown by Molecular Beam Epitaxy. Once released from their substrate, the films have exhibited shape memory beh ...

  9. A Lightweight Ultra-Wideband Lens TEM Horn with Low Sidelobes and Low Radar Cross Section

    SBC: FARR RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: N/A

    Ultra-Wideband radar systems could contribute significantly to the detection and identification of unknown objects. UWB radars have been shown to work well in environments where conventional radars fail, such as looking through foliage or soil. However,UWB radars suffer from the lack of an antenna with low sidelobes, while still maintaining the ability to radiate a clean impulse. Currently availab ...

  10. A High-Voltage UWB Coupled-Line Directional Coupler

    SBC: FARR RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: N/A

    Ultra-Wideband (UWB) radar systems will be useful for remote target identification, especially when looking through foliage, rain, or soil. The current state of the art, however, requires two separate antennas, one each for transmit and receive. Becausethe space available for antennas is limited, it would be highly convenient to use a single antenna. We investigate here a number of technologies th ...
