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 Receiver for Distressed Emitter Localization (ARDEL)

    SBC: TOYON RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: HSB0181002

    A majority of U.S. adults own a cell phone and are inclined to use it in emergency situations to call for assistance. Unfortunately, in areas where the density of cell towers is low, such as in rural and off-shore environments, the ability of the wireless network to geolocate the origin of the wireless signal is poor to non-existent. Under the proposed effort, Toyon Research Corporation will devel ...

  3. aSAM: An adaptive Simple Acoustic Modem

    SBC: DESERT STAR SYSTEMS, LLC            Topic: HR001120S001906

    Underwater Acoustic Modems (UW-A) have seen significant R&D and commercial product introductions in recent years. Standards including JANUS (NATO) and JSATS (USACE), have emerged.  Yet, interoperability remains limited due to the generally proprietary nature of commercial products, the complexity and vulnerability of high bandwidth options, and high costs/size/power consumption limiting modem use ...

  5. Automated and Scalable Analysis of Mobile and IoT Device Firmware

    SBC: RAM LABORATORIES            Topic: HSB0181008

    As Internet of Things (IoT) and mobile devices become increasingly popular and widely used, the security of the firmware running on these devices is paramount.However, due to the lack of an efficient and scalable analysis framework, combined with the increasing pressure to get products to market as quickly as possible, the software running on these devices is never properly checked for security vu ...

  6. Automated Assessment of Urban Environment Degradation for Disaster Relief andReconstruction

    SBC: TOYON RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: NGA181004

    Toyon Research Corp. proposes development of a system that automates disaster assessment based on fusion of overhead and ground-basedimages, video, and other data. In Phase I, we will investigate various possible data sources and the benefits of fusing the data in automatedanalysis. We will select and curate data for processing in a Phase I feasibility study. Damage assessment will be performed in ...

  7. Automating tilt and roll in ground-based photos and video frames

    SBC: INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF VIRTUAL ORGANIZATIONS, INCORPORATED            Topic: NGA201006

    NGA seeks an innovation to fully automate processes that recover camera orientation parameters, specifically for ground-based “photo” (aka image) and video frame use cases. The ability to use these ground-based systems represents an enhanced aspect to traditional photogrammetry, and in many regards, folding in hand-held systems, and considering the nuances associated with these collects, is ye ...

  8. Bayesian Urban Degradation Assessment

    SBC: INTELLISENSE SYSTEMS INC            Topic: NGA181004

    To address the NGA need for algorithms that fuse observables from over-flight operations and from ground sources to automatically estimatethe degradation of urban environments due to battle damage or natural disasters, Intellisense Systems, Inc. (ISS) proposes to develop a newBayesian Urban Degradation Assessment (BUDA) software system. It is based on the integration of multiple damage assessment ...

  9. Bilayer Nanofibers as Wearable Sensors for Detecting Fentanyl Compounds

    SBC: Vaporsens, Inc.            Topic: HSB0181001

    Drug overdose is now the leading cause of death for Americans under 50 years old, with fentanyl claiming more lives than any other drug.Alarmingly, the problem is increasing, with fentanyl overdoses claiming nearly twice as many lives in 2016 compared to 2015.In addition to users, first responders are at risk for coming into contact with fentanyl as they perform their duties.Fentanyl is extremely ...

  10. Blending Ground View and Overhead Models

    SBC: Arete Associates            Topic: NGA181008

    We propose to build ARGON, the ARet Ground-to-Overhead Network. The network will ingest analyst-supplied ground-level imagery ofobjects and retrieve instances of those objects in overhead collections, providing tips back to the analysts. A proprietary method of trainingthe network, leveraging in-house capabilities, data sources, and tools, will be critical to its success. During Phase I, we will p ...
