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 Fidelity IR Clutter Generator for Missile Warning Sensors (HSLEDS)

    SBC: Chip Design Systems Inc.            Topic: A20054

    We propose to study the feasibility of novel high fidelity background clutter generation approaches, tuned specifically toward dual-color IR clutter generator including all the IR wavelength regimes (SWIR, MWIR, and LWIR). Special attention will be paid to component availability and operational readiness of projector hardware, firmware and software components. The exit criteria for phase I is a ...

  2. Camera-Based Automated Biometric Checkpoints for Army Forward Operating Bases (FOBs)

    SBC: EM PHOTONICS INC            Topic: A20073

    The U.S. Army maintains numerous forward operating bases (FOBs) that each require strict security. These FOBs are monitored by a collection of cameras constantly producing live video feeds of the surrounding area. If automated algorithms could detect and track people in each camera’s field of view (FOV), security could be improved by identifying threatening individuals, preventing infiltration b ...

  3. Transformation of carbon emissions to high-value products through a two-step electrochemical platform

    SBC: LECTROLYST LLC            Topic: G

    Carbon dioxide utilization can help reduce carbon emissions, but gaps remain in the value chain from initial capture to high-value products. Lectrolyst LLC will develop an electrochemical platform centered on selective two-step conversion of CO2 to acetic acid and ethylene, to fill this need. Preliminary life cycle assessment and techno-economic analyses indicate ~200 million metric tons of CO2 em ...

  5. Line-of-Sight (LOS) Low Probability of Detection/Intercept (LPD/LPI) Millimeter Wave Communication

    SBC: PHASE SENSITIVE INNOVATIONS INC            Topic: N192091

    Dynamically frequency-tunable phased array communications in the millimeter-wave regime could provide unprecedented levels of control in the ability to provide high data rate electronic communications while maintaining covert operations (LPI/LPD) by tuning around existing atmospheric absorption lines. Herein, PSI proposes to leverage newly developed technology for the creation of optically generat ...

  6. Millimeter wave Instrumentation and Characterization

    SBC: PHASE SENSITIVE INNOVATIONS INC            Topic: AF192008

    Equipment required for transmission and reflection measurements above 100 GHz is cost prohibitive, can possess undesirable harmonics, and is largely incompatible with vacuum equipment. Implementation of basic RF photonic technologies as an alternative to typical electronic instrumentation is not unheard of and was demonstrated circa 2011. We propose that with a current RF photonic approach we will ...

  7. Packaging High Power Photodetectors for 100 MHz to 100 GHz RF Photonic Applications

    SBC: PHASE SENSITIVE INNOVATIONS INC            Topic: AF131142

    ABSTRACT: In this SBIR effort we will develop a packaging process and demonstrate (Phase I) a prototype of high power Photodiode (PD) that has a normal incident, pigtailed fiber input and a coaxial RF output that operates from DC to>60GHz. We will apply and extend (Phase II) the aforementioned packaging process to single PD, balanced PD and array of PDs that work from DC through entire W-band. De ...

  8. Electro-Optically Guided Radar Imaging

    SBC: PHASE SENSITIVE INNOVATIONS INC            Topic: A13040

    Millimeter-wave RADAR imaging holds significant promise for many applications from rotorcraft DVE mitigation to standoff security screening. A key challenge of this imaging modality, however, has been the implementation of an effective method for creating an image without relying on either mechanical scanning or expensive, high SWAP phased array techniques. Herein, we present a concept for creat ...

  9. "Night Glow"Short Wave Infrared LED (NSLED) Image Projector Development

    SBC: Chip Design Systems Inc.            Topic: AF131098

    ABSTRACT: This project aims to develop a Short Wave Infrared band image projector to provide real time detector stimulation with high dynamic range. Our emitter technology is based on GaInAsSb quaternary semiconductor LED arrays hybridized to CMOS read-in integrated circuits. This project leverages read-in circuit design and control electronics that were developed under SLEDS - a longer wavelengt ...

  10. A New Standard for Power-Aware Programming

    SBC: EM PHOTONICS INC            Topic: A13029

    New enhancements to mobile computers including smaller sensors, displays and powerful processors have made them much more attractive for the battlefield, not only as wearable systems for soldiers, but also unattended ground sensors a warfighter can leave behind for situational awareness. Unfortunately, while the technologies for hands-free interfacing have improved greatly, the challenge of limiti ...
