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. A Chemical Sniffer to Detect Nuclear Weapons

    SBC: EIC LABORATORIES, INC.            Topic: N/A

    We will develop a vapor phase detector of the chemicals/explosives associated with nuclear weaponry. Radioactivity detection allows accurate weapons verification, but provides too much information on the weaponry design. An alternative is to detect otherchemicals associated with nuclear weaponry. EIC Laboratories has successfully developed vapor phase Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) ...

  2. A Data-Driven Multi-Perspective Solution for Improving Transit Bus Safety

    SBC: Tranalytics, LLC            Topic: 22FT1

    This research proposes a data-driven and multi-perspective solution to reduce injuries and fatalities due to bus collisions with other vehicles. It goes beyond reviewing historical bus crash reports by collecting field LiDAR data for better understanding a variety of factors that may contribute to bus collisions and injuries/fatalities. It also recognizes that collision avoidance technologies (whi ...

  3. Advanced nanocomposite scintillator for gamma radiation detection

    SBC: AGILTRON, INC.            Topic: DTRA08005

    Gamma radiation detection has traditionally required single crystal materials that are difficult to produce consistently on an industrial scale. Agiltron has developed a new class of scintillator materials based on composites containing nanoparticles. These so-called nanocomposites exhibit radiation detection characteristics superior to currently available single crystal scintillators. In Phase I ...

  4. AEROSOL CONCENTRATION BY SPACE CHARGE ATOMIZING ELECTROSTATIC PRECIPITATOR

    SBC: David Gordon Associates, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    FAA AVIATION SECURITY HAS EXPRESSED A NEED FOR TECHNOLOGIES TO PROVIDE INCREASED SENSITIVITY/RESPONSE TO AIRBORNE FORMS OF EXPLOSIVES. THE TECHNOLOGIES ASSOCIATED WITH SPACE CHARGE ATOMIZING ELECTROSTATIC PRECIPITATION (SCAEP) HAVE CAPABILITIES IN CONCENTRATING THE CONTAMINANTS IN LARGE VOLUMES OF AIR INTO SMALL VOLUMES OF LIQUID WITH INCREASED DETECTION CAPABILITY. AN R & D PROGRAM TO DEFINE CAPT ...

  5. AI and PONS for Object Identification and Annotation

    SBC: PROMETHEUS INC.            Topic: NGA203003

    To attack the challenge of object identification and annotation across diverse families of image data, Prometheus and Raytheon will implement a software toolkit based on our new mathematically–based AI tool. The AI input will be matrix coefficients resulting from the unique Prometheus-developed energy-spreading transform, PONS, the Prometheus Orthonormal Set. PONS is currently in use by both the ...

  6. AIR DEPLOYABLE SELF-LOCATING SURFACE DRIFTING BUOY

    SBC: SIPPICAN, INC            Topic: N/A

    SURFACE DRIFTING BUOYS MARK THE ORIGINAL SEARCH DATUM FOR SEARCH AND RESCUE MISSIONS. THIS BUOY WILL BE SELF-LOCATING, USING GPS AND TRANSMIT ITS LOCATION EVERY 12 HOURS VIA THE GOES SATELLITE FOR 45 DAYS. THE SYSTEM DESIGN WILL BE SPECIFIED AS A RESULT OF THIS PROPOSAL.

  7. ALARM: Adversarially-learned Labels using Activity and Reward Models

    SBC: APTIMA INC            Topic: NGA191006

    Technological advances in navigation and positioning, along with expanding wireless infrastructure and remote sensing technologies, have resulted in explosive growth of available trajectory data from a variety of moving objects, such as people, cars, ships, and animals. Trajectory data have numerous commercial applications, e.g., location-based services, travel forecasting, health monitoring, dise ...

  8. Alternative Signature Detectors for Long Range Nuclear Material Identification

    SBC: RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC.            Topic: DTRA162003

    Increasing the distance for standoff detection of nuclear materials, beyond that capable with direct radiation detection, using “alternative signatures”, such as the concentration of ionization in the surrounding atmosphere, improves the ability to locate, track and monitor this material. Ionizing radiation generates free elections, ions, and exited states in the nearby atmosphere, even when t ...

  9. A Multi-Pedestrian Counting System Using Fusion of Stereo Camera and Laser Scanner

    SBC: Migma Systems Inc.            Topic: 091FH4

    In Phase I, we developed a new system for pedestrian detection, tracking and counting. In this system, both IR LED stereo camera and laser scanner were selected for use. We have demonstrated that our pedestrian counting system can count multiple pedestrians walking in a large group, maintain individual tracks even when some pedestrians walk in unpredictable patterns or leave the crosswalk prematur ...

  10. A Multi-Sensor Hybrid System for Motorcycle and Bicycle Detection and Classification

    SBC: Migma Systems Inc.            Topic: 081FH4

    In Phase I, we developed a suite of algorithms for the detection and classification of motorcycle and bicycle using IR LED stereo camera, LWIR thermal camera, and microphone. Test results using real data collected at streets have shown an excellent performance of this system. In Phase II, we will further improve the system developed and focus on the system performance issues in terms of near 100 ...
