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. High Aspect Ratio Conductive Flakes for Advanced Bispectral, Infrared, and Asymmetric Obscuration

    SBC: LUNA LABS USA LLC            Topic: A19BT011

    Obscurants are materials that absorb, scatter, or emit radiation in the visible, infrared (IR), or millimeter wavelength regions of the electromagnetic spectrum to reduce the transmission of radiation. For military applications, this reduction of transmitted radiation interrupts the line of sight between the target and observer to provide a key defensive tool to protect US warfighters from detecti ...

  3. Antireflective optics for safe power beaming

    SBC: GLINT PHOTONICS, INC.            Topic: HR001121S000729

    Optical power beaming systems have the potential to revolutionize energy supply for airborne military platforms, allowing networks of unmanned aircraft to operate aloft indefinitely. To ensure safe and efficient optical power transfer, receiving optics must be designed to provide rigorous photon containment. Stray reflections and scattered light must be minimized in order to ensure safety for pers ...

  5. Multi-cell X-ray target with energy recuperation

    SBC: RADIABEAM TECHNOLOGIES, LLC            Topic: HR0011ST2023D01

    Food irradiation technology has attracted more attention in the past decade given that it can provide a sustainable solution on how to address pathogen contamination in food. X-ray irradiation has several advantages compared to other irradiation technologies including superior penetrating quality compared to electron beams, and considerably larger dose rate compared to gamma rays. However, the low ...

  6. Brain-Based Prediction of Influence Message Effectiveness (BB-PRIME) II-2

    SBC: CHARLES RIVER ANALYTICS, INC.            Topic: A12AT009

    Behavior change through the use of messages is a common objective across the Defense community. The ability for analysts to craft effective messages is a challenge, and there are many features of messages that can be varied and that have moderating effects on sharing messages and creating effective behavior change. However, current research has not established definitive causal relationships betwe ...

  7. ADAPT II.2 – Adaptive Distributed Allocation of Probabilistic Tasks

    SBC: APTIMA INC            Topic: A18BT007

    Artificial intelligence (AI) is swiftly integrating into the workforce and complementing the human as a teammate. AI imbued with social reasoning capacities, or artificial social intelligence (ASI), is posited as the next avenue of technological advancement. However, researchers have begun to note some of the pitfalls of careless or quick implementation of AI without proper consideration of the we ...

  9. AI/ML Aided Aviation Sensors for Cognitive and Decision Optimization

    SBC: PARRY LABS, LLC            Topic: SOCOM23B001

    Existing airborne defense systems integrate a wide variety of sensors necessary to provide operators with situational awareness across the visual, thermal, signals, and electromagnetic spectrums. To date, individual sensor systems have been largely stove-piped, as have Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML) and advanced, Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP)-optimized data processing systems. T ...

  10. AI/ML Aided Aviation Sensors for Cognitive and Decision Optimization

    SBC: Mente Systems Inc.            Topic: SOCOM23B001

    Sensor systems aboard aircrafts address unique problems and are siloed in their objectives. A data silo is a term used to describe a data system that is insulated from other data systems. While keeping information categorized may lead to easier organization, the costs often outweigh the benefits. In aviation systems, data silos often lead to miscommunication, cognitive overload, and waste. These d ...
