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. Automated Sanding of Aircraft Coatings

    SBC: Aerobotix, Inc.            Topic: AF071112

    The development of a robotic sanding system is of particular importance to implementing an automated method for sanding critical, high performance coatings to final thickness and surface finish requirements on internal/external aircraft composite structures. The objective of the proposed research project is to continue development of robotic sanding technology and produce a fully functional proto ...

  2. Akita: Software Situational Awareness for End-node Authentication

    SBC: Pikewerks Corporation            Topic: OSD06I11

    Akita is a software-based situational awareness system that aids in the protection of sensitive applications by using inherent system characteristics to generate unique encryption/decryption keys. Similar to biometrics taken from humans, digital metrics can be used to create a unique fingerprint of a compute system, or network. The fingerprint generated can be used to unlock protected data or app ...

  3. Kernel-mode Software Protection to Prevent Piracy, Reverse Engineering, and Tampering of End-Node Applications

    SBC: Pikewerks Corporation            Topic: OSD06IA6

    The ability to protect software from piracy, unauthorized use, reverse-engineering, or other malicious analysis represents a valuable commodity in a currently underserved market. While existing techniques for protecting software applications are able to stop juvenile cracking attempts, a desperate need exists for more sophisticated solutions which can protect Critical Intellectual Property (CIP) f ...

  4. Local Area Space Situational Awareness (SSA) Optical Sensor System for Satellites

    SBC: DIGITAL FUSION SOLUTIONS, INC.            Topic: AF071293

    Digital Fusion Solutions (DFS) proposes to develop a visible imaging polarimeter to support space situational awareness, with a focus on geostationary orbit. The proposed sensor operates autonomously with a wide field of view to for target/anomaly detection and then switches to a narrow field of view for in-depth surveillance of suspect objects. The sensor is fabricated using a proprietary optical ...

  5. Anti-Forensics as a Countermeasure to Software Piracy and Reverse Engineering

    SBC: Pikewerks Corporation            Topic: OSD07I03

    Anti-Forensics is the art and practice of obscuring data storage, transmission, and execution in such a way that it remains hidden from even a professional, dedicated examiner. Pikewerks has identified a number of additional anti-forensic research areas that would significantly enhance the confidentiality and integrity of executable code, data, and cryptographic materials. This includes novel out- ...

  6. Polarization Projection Control for Space Simulation Chambers

    SBC: POLARIS SENSOR TECHNOLOGIES INC            Topic: AF071340

    Polaris will first design, construct, and integrate a scene projector polarization controller (SPPC) that will be able to produce an arbitrarily defined linear polarization state, both in magnitude and orientation, for IR scenes. Development of the system through a successful Phase II will result in a useful module for use in a variety of HWIL test facilities. This technology demonstration will s ...

  7. Autonomic Kernel Protections to Reduce Attack Susceptibility

    SBC: Pikewerks Corporation            Topic: OSD07I05

    Pikewerks will develop a method to autonomously self-organize, monitor, and repair Operating System kernels, modules, and protected applications across a network. The approach being proposed is a layered solution consisting of four parts: application healing, distributed host kernel healing, System Management Mode (SMM) healing, and a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). Each of these layers will ...

  8. Advanced Analog Micro-lens Technology

    SBC: GRASSMERE DYNAMICS            Topic: AF071003

    To better quantify the benefits from the advanced microlens technology developed in the Phase I we plan to have microlenses installed in three astronomical telescopes. In Phase II we are planning to complete the fabrication of the remaining 4 microlenses needed for Gemini telescope and ,also fabricate microlenses for SOR telescopes in New Mexico (NGAS)and Hawaii. This will provide a direct evalua ...

  9. Deeply Buried Hardened Target Fuze

    SBC: TECHSHOT, INC.            Topic: AF071146

    SHOT’s innovative design for a deeply buried hardened target fuze incorporates the use of a non-inertial proximity sensor as a solution to the shortcomings of existing accelerometer –based smart fuze designs. The proposed sensor is compact, relatively low power, and can easily be adapted to a wide variety of proximity sensing problems in retrofit adaptable form factors. SHOT’s proposed desi ...

  10. Low Erosion, Lightweight Composites for Reaction Jet Control Systems

    SBC: Plasma Processes, LLC            Topic: AF071149

    Reaction Jet Control (RJC) systems will provide agility, maneuverability and end-game lethality to missiles and precision guided munitions. Demonstration of this technology is an important milestone in the development of next generation multi role missiles, such as the Joint Dual Role Air Dominance Missile (JDRADM). The major technical challenge of the RJC program is developing low-cost, lightwe ...
