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. Self-Supervised Training in Geospatial Applications with a Robust Hierarchical Vision Transformer (STAR)

    SBC: UNIVERSITY TECHNICAL SERVICES, INC.            Topic: OSD22A001

    Satellite Imagery in Geospatial Intelligence (GEOINT), in conjunction with imagery intelligence (IMINT), geospatial information, and other means of gaining intelligence, has greatly improved the potential of the warfighter and decision makers enabling them to gain a more comprehensive perspective, an in-depth understanding, and a cross-functional awareness of the operational environment. The Artif ...

  2. T3DDART – Tractable Tiered Task Decompositions for Decentralized Autonomous Resource Tasking

    SBC: SCIENTIFIC SYSTEMS CO INC            Topic: HR001121S000725

    The current state-of-the-art for autonomous unmanned vehicles is limited in comms-denied situations, where operators cannot assist with coordination and situational reassessment.  Significant algorithmic development is needed for comms-challenged autonomous operations to achieve parity with operator-driven or manned equivalents, as autonomous agents are not currently equipped to anticipate and re ...

  3. Multimodal Non-Destructive Microfluidic Sorting of Microbes for Elemental Analysis

    SBC: BRIMROSE TECHNOLOGY CORP            Topic: HR001120S001924

    Rare Earth Elements (REEs) are essential for modern electronics and defense systems, yet the US is dependent on foreign sources for these compounds. This proposed work will create an economical and efficient method for harvesting REE from domestic soil and waste sources by enabling high throughput methods of identifying microbes, in complex media, that are capable of uptaking REEs through biologic ...

  4. Highly Assured Secure (HAS) Data Storage Device

    SBC: TRUSTED SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY, INC.            Topic: HR001120S001920

    A USB device is one of the most common mass storage devices. However, a UAS device is known to be vulnerable to many cyber threats.  The proposed effort is to develop a Highly Assured Secure (HAS) Data Storage Device.  HAS device is a mass storage solution to provide highly assured, trustworthy, and detectable data storage.

  5. Thermal Emission Control using Photonic Crystals

    SBC: PSQUAREDT LLC            Topic: HR001120S001925

    To achieve the requisite fast, dynamic thermal switching times, we postulate the use of a Photonic Crystal (PC) filament operating at l=1-2mm. Our electrically biased PC design will be super thin to allow for fast on-off intensity-switching. It will have a small thermal mass and exhibit laser-like input-output characteristics, i.e. “Planck laser”. We will provide a theoretical framework for ou ...

  6. Thermochromic Coatings for Emissivity Modulation

    SBC: PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC.            Topic: HR001120S001925

    Physical Sciences Inc. (PSI) and the University of Wisconsin, Madison propose to develop a multilayer emissivity control coating (MECC) for active and passive thermal emission control. PSI will fabricate a thermochromic emissivity control coating based on vanadium dioxide (VO2) and validate its ability to modulate broadband thermal signature contrast by >10:1 with a switching time of 1 µs. We wil ...

  8. Variable Leg Length Ground Robot with Novel Prismatic Actuators

    SBC: TRITON SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: HR001119S003523

    Triton Systems, Inc. will work in collaboration with Professor Mark Yim of the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) to design a viable, robust ground robot with novel, reconfigurable actuators. This robot can reconfigure from a wheeled state to a legged state, enabling it to overcome tall obstacles and rough terrain. This ground robot will also be of a modular nature, able to be combined with others ...

  9. Self-driving Modular AI-based Robot for Rough Terrain (SMARRT)

    SBC: Intelligent Automation, Inc.            Topic: HR001119S003523

    The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is seeking to utilize small reconfigurable robotic system to operate independently in unknown highly complex environments. We propose a modular reconfigurable robot, which presents several locomotion modality to handle different type of off-road environments. We proposed several configurations for the robot, which are well-suited to the type of ...

  10. MORTIMER: Language Mechanisms and Tools for Run-TIme Memory Access Policy Enforcement

    SBC: Intelligent Automation, Inc.            Topic: HR001120S0019001

    DoD has a critical need for protecting sensitive data to make sure that only the intended, trusted programs or parts of programs can access the data. This protection must be also effective when data is loaded into memory while being processed by software. Lately, the side-channel attacks which are based on information gained from the implementation of a computer system rather than exploiting algor ...
