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. Production of New Durable, Transparent Conductive Coatings

    SBC: ACREE TECHNOLOGIES INCORPORATED            Topic: AF071103

    Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) is currently used as a transparent electrically conductive coating on aircraft canopies to provide electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding for electronic components. The problem with ITO is that it is relatively soft and scratches easily, requiring frequent replacement of the windscreen, leading to high maintenance costs and aircraft downtime. In addition, ITO is applie ...

  2. Non-Invasive Model Attitude and Deformation Measurement

    SBC: ACUITY TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: AF06298

    A system for high-resolution, real-time (40Hz), non-invasive wind tunnel attitude and deformation measurement is proposed. The system combines projection of structured laser light with photography of the illuminated surface. Photogrammetric techniques are used to obtain the three dimensional shape of the surface. Whereas most structured light systems employ a repeating pattern of lines, the prop ...

  3. Development of Castings for Landing Gear aluminum forgings

    SBC: ENGINEERING AND SOFTWARE SYSTEM SOLUTIONS, INC.            Topic: AF071318

    Landing gear designs utilize forgings for structural applications, to maximize properties and minimize weight. Although this approach allows for minimal component weight and size, forgings commonly have extended procurement lead time, and are usually an expensive manufacturing method. Phase I of this effort provided compelling evidence that the newly developed Intermetallic-strengthened Martensi ...

  4. Development of Flow-Field Seeding for Large Wind Tunnels

    SBC: Advanced Projects Research, Incorporated            Topic: AF06297

    The Air Force seeks a large production wind tunnel seeding system with full field steering capability. Additionally, the system must offer control of the particle size and density along with minimal maintenance and flow disturbance characteristics. These features will increase tunnel productivity, and compliment nonintrusive flow visualization techniques, such as Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) ...

  5. Optical Void Sensing for Deeply Buried Hardened Target Penetrators

    SBC: Aerius Photonics, LLC.            Topic: AF071146

    Aerius Photonics proposes an optical void sensor that will meet the objectives of the Air Force for a survivable, reliable, non-inertial void detector for deeply buried hardened target penetrators. The sensor approach draws low power, is compact and has the potential for precise distance ranging, void counting, void measurements, and pseudo void imaging in cluttered environments. To achieve this ...

  6. Enhanced Fuel-Lubricated Bearing for Turbine Engine Applications

    SBC: Allcomp Inc.            Topic: AF071184

    There is a constant need to reduce the size and part counts of state-of-the-art (SOA) turbine engines. One already demonstrated solution, which offers significant weight and cost payoffs, uses advanced fuel-lubricated (fuel-lubed) bearing. The challenge associated with fuel lubrication is that the fuel does not provide nearly as much lubricity to the bearing components as the traditional oil lubri ...

  7. Compact Hybrid Liquid/Air Heat Exchanger

    SBC: Allcomp Inc.            Topic: AF071119

    High conductivity (Hi-K) Carbon-based foams offering extremely high surface area and the highest specific thermal conductivity (conductivity/ density) among engineering materials are considered as ideal candidate materials for advanced heat exchanger and for various thermal management applications. A hybrid heat exchanger using carbon-based foam and standard aluminum heat exchanger materials and c ...

  8. Adaptive Multiwaveform Laser Radar

    SBC: Arete Associates            Topic: AF071236

    Rapid and reliable identification or discrimination of friendly and hostile targets at beyond visual ranges remains a major technical challenge that may be best served by advances in ladar technology. Next-generation intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) ladar systems will tackle the difficult problem of detecting, identifying and imaging targets at great range. Ladar based ISR syste ...

  9. Development of a Near-Field Acoustic Holography System for Noise Source Characterization of a Full-scale Jet

    SBC: ATA ENGINEERING, INC.            Topic: AF071023

    This SBIR Phase II proposal addresses the development of a combined near-field acoustic holography (NAH)/beamforming (BF) system to characterize jet noise sources from military aircraft. The hardware and software designs are motivated by requirements set by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) at Wright-Patterson AFB. The technical approach focuses on (1) development and validation of novel ar ...

  10. Software Protection for Embedded Applications

    SBC: CODETRONIX LLC            Topic: OSD06IA8

    This work will develop and deploy multiple countermeasures for FPGA-based systems, including: error detection and/or correction using spatial, temporal and information redundancy, error identification and response using exception handling, error recovery and obfuscation using partial reconfiguration, and encryption using physical unique functions. Building on the prototypes successfully demonstr ...
