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 Quantum Efficiency, Fast Detectors for the Readout of Scintillators for Gamma-Ray Detection

    SBC: RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC.            Topic: N/A

    Gamma-ray spectrometers consisting of inorganic scintillators coupled to optical detectors such as photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) are an important element of the systems that are used to monitor and prevent the spread of special nuclear materials. Two very important requirements for the scintillation detectors used as gamma-ray spectrometers in homeland security monitoring include high sensitivity a ...

  2. LIBS: An Alternative to Commercial Instruments for Measurement of Lead

    SBC: RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC.            Topic: N/A

    Radioactive materials are used in commercially important analytical instruments because of the ability of ionizing radiation to excite characteristic x-ray fluorescence lines. Radiation sources are often the most practical method for portable instruments, such as analyzers for lead paint in homes. There are many other applications, including the rapidly growing area of RoHS manufacturing. This eff ...

  3. Improved Vapor Compression Personal Cooling

    SBC: Aspen Systems, Inc.            Topic: HSB042006

    The use of protective garments and/or body armor combined with warm ambient environments is a potentially lethal combination. We propose to develop a very small man-portable, self-contained cooling system based on our vapor compression technology. We believe that a vapor compression based system is the only candidate that can meet the size and weight goals of the mission. Aspen Systems is uniquely ...

  4. GaP Avalanche Photodiodes for Radiation Detection

    SBC: Aymont Technology, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    In this Phase I DHS STTR proposal submitted in response to Topic H-SB06.2-007, Aymont Technology, Inc. and University of Virginia will develop gallium phosphide (GaP) avalanche photodiodes (APD) with high quantum efficiency (QE>50% at 360 nm in Phase I), high gain (>100000), and high speed (2 GHz bandwidth). This Phase I effort will build upon previous work in the Campbell group that demonstrated ...

  5. Emergency Responder Tracking and Situation Awareness in a 4D Visualization Environment

    SBC: BALFOUR TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: N/A

    To address the needs of emergency responders and incident commanders, a 4-D Emergency Response Tracking System (ERTS) is being developed to provide dynamic situational awareness in locating first responders and assets within building structures in urban environments. The proof-of-concept presentation will demonstrate how 3-D intelligent, interactive visual models of building infrastructure can be ...

  6. Automated Situation Awareness using a 4D Visualization Environment

    SBC: BALFOUR TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: HSB061009

    To address the significant challenges being created by the rapidly expanding deployment of multi-spectrum sensors in large distributed surveillance operations, the feasibility, architecture design and interface standards are being investigated for a 4D Landscape Automated Situation Awareness(ASA) System. The proof-of-concept presentation will demonstrate how such a system can effectively manage la ...

  7. Robust Autonomous Power Generation for UGS Employing High Efficiency Thermoelectrics

    SBC: Biophan Technologies, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    One of the greatest challenges facing UGS networks is the availability of power to run critical processes. Most current technologies employ off-the-shelf batteries which require replacement every 6mnths or so. Battery replacement in a UGS deployment for border security is not only costly, but in some terrains nearly impossible. Ideally, UGS field components would harness power from the environment ...

  8. Developing Incident Scenarios Automatically for Simulation-based Training for Emergency Responders (DISASTER)

    SBC: CHARLES RIVER ANALYTICS, INC.            Topic: N/A

    Given recent man-made and naturally occurring catastrophic events such as the terrorist attacks on 9/11 and the effect of Hurricane Katrina, it is apparent that an emergency responder¿s ability to successfully manage and mitigate critical incidents is becoming of increasing importance. Training through live exercises is burdened by limits on availability as well as high costs in financial and per ...

  9. Real-time Malicious Code Detection in Network Traffic: The PAYL Payload Anomaly Detector

    SBC: CounterStorm, Inc. (formally System Detection, Inc.)            Topic: HSB042002

    This proposal, a collaboration between Columbia University and System Detection Inc., concerns the research of a new payload anomaly detector, we call PAYL, that has been demonstrated to detect malicious code in network traffic. The core concept is to statistically model normal content and detect anomalous packet content indicative of malicious exploit code. The approach is very fast to compute, i ...

  10. Secure Inter-organizational Network Boundary Assurance Device (SINBAD)

    SBC: Dolphin Technology, Inc.            Topic: HSB061007

    This effort proposes to analyze and develop a design for the Secure Inter-organizational Network Boundary Assurance Device (SINBAD). SINBAD will leverage capabilities and leverage lessons from guard technology to yield an enhanced boundary control and inspection capability suitable for Homeland Security organizations exchanging inter-organizational email with attachments. It will 1) prevent improp ...
