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. Advanced Durability Systems for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Propulsion

    SBC: BAKER ENGINEERING, LLC            Topic: SOCOM163002

    Baker Engineering Inc. (BEI) proposes the exploration of advanced material technologies to improve Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) engine durability, thermal and wear resistance, and strength within critical internal engine components. Specifically during the Phase I effort, BEI will research the use of advanced materials and coatings on static engine components including cylinders, blocks and crank ...

  2. Advanced Lightweight Vehicle Components and Materials

    SBC: GS ENGINEERING INC            Topic: SOCOM07001

    The additional weight of add on armor systems and extra equipment, coupled with IED tactical warfare, has negatively impacted the performance of tactical wheeled vehicles. This is demonstrated by compressed suspension systems, higher vehicle center of gravity, increased rollovers, and reduced performance on all tactical vehicles, but is especially prevalent in HMMWV’s. The US military has star ...

  3. Algorithm Performance Evaluation with Low Sample Size

    SBC: SIGNATURE RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: NGA20C001

    The team of Signature Research, Inc. and Michigan Technological University will develop and demonstrate methods and metrics to evaluate the performance of machine learning-based computer vision algorithms with low numbers of samples of labeled EO imagery. We will use the existing xView panchromatic dataset to demonstrate a proof-of-concept set of tools. If successful, in Phase II, we will extend t ...

  5. Color Sequential, Multi-Spectral Low-Light Imager

    SBC: I Technology Applications            Topic: N/A

    "This proposal describes a unique concept for a low light, compact image intensification system that provides multi-spectral input and output capability in contrast to the current broadband input/green output capability of conventional image intensificationdevices. Present image intensifiers use a broadband photocathode sensitive to visible and near-IR optical radiation and provide green imagery ...

  6. Compact, Efficient Motor Controllers with Active Noise Cancellation

    SBC: Applied Physical Sciences Corp.            Topic: SOCOM09005

    Most commercial motor controllers (MC’s) operate at relatively low switching frequency that produces a detectable acoustic signature and therefore drives the Navy to procure MC’s operating at higher frequencies in order to reduce acoustic signature. These custom MC’s, however, still generate significant noise, are not sufficiently reliable, and have obsolete components. APS will develop an i ...

  7. Diver Physiological Monitoring (DPM) System with Integrated Head Mounted Display (HMD) and AComms

    SBC: Applied Physical Sciences Corp.            Topic: SOCOM11002

    Applied Physical Sciences Corp. (APS) in collaboration with Ocean Technology Systems (OTS) will develop a diver physiological monitoring (DPM) system with integrated microdisplay that easily retrofits with existing full face masks (FFM) and that leverages commercial-off-the-shelf biometric sensors. The capability to quantitatively evaluate and assess a remote diver"s status will significantly imp ...

  8. Enhanced Canine Performance, Protection and Survivability

    SBC: Metro International Biotech, LLC            Topic: SOCOM172002

    Given the benefits of exercise on general health, orally active compounds that can mimic or potentiate the effects of exercise have been of keen interest as therapeutic and dietary ingredients. Our proposed approach for enhancement of USSOCOM Multi-Purpose Canine (MPC) endurance and sensory performance using an exercise mimetic is based on the observation that age-related decline of nicotinamide ...

  9. Faster Optical Modem for Underwater Data Acquisition

    SBC: SONALYSTS INC            Topic: NGA182001

    To address NGA’s requirements, Sonalysts’ team of world-class experts in underwater optical communication proposes development and implementation of the Precision Optical Navigation Transceiver for Undersea Systems (PONTUS). PONTUS will transfer navigation information from an Underwater Navigation Beacon (UNB) to an Unmanned Undersea Vehicle (UUV) in an electromagnetic-spectrum-denied (e.g., G ...

  10. Freeze Dried Plasma for Canines

    SBC: OXFORD BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: SOCOM163007

    Blood loss due to severe hemorrhaging is the leading cause of preventable combat death. Fresh frozen human plasma is commonly used to stabilize the wounded soldiers, but it is heavy, has a limited shelf life, and requires frozen storage. Currently, dried human plasma is being evaluated by the FDA, and has been used in several countries for some time. In addition to soldiers, several hundred wa ...
