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. A Semantic Search and Predictive Analytical Framework for Improved Air Cargo Screening

    SBC: Cignal LLC            Topic: DHS231002

    The ability to navigate complex, dense X-ray images with occluded objects and superposition of potential threats presents a significant challenge for air cargo screeners.Explosive detection and threat interdiction is also challenging due to the varied ways threat actors conceal and disguise illicit activity.These factors work to reduce screening efficiency and throughput, as skids must be broken d ...

  2. Jaia Robotics, Inc.

    SBC: Jaia Robotics, Inc.            Topic: 96

    "Jaia Robotics’ low-cost, micro-sized hybrid uncrewed surface/underwater vehicles called JaiaBotsTM can be deployed from the shore or vessels. The system enables truly affordable multivehicle operations that can be scaled to provide wide area synoptic data collection. In the proposed effort the project team will develop a JaiaBot which is air-deployable from sonobuoy launch tubes to collect atmo ...

  3. Enabling Expanded Crowdsourced Bathymetry Contributions With High Quality Metadata Via Commercially Sustainable Incentives To Contributors

    SBC: FARSOUNDER INC            Topic: 93

    A cloud based system for sharing bathymetric survey data collected by FarSounder customers is proposed as a way(1) to improve safety of navigation on our oceans, (2) to collect measurements for the broader scientific and maritime communities and (3) to generally explore and broadly share information about our oceans in fulfillment of ideas proposed in Topic 9.3 “The Changing Ocean”, and in acc ...

  4. Autonomous Environmental UAV Survey System for Wildfire Assessments

    SBC: Robotics 88, Inc.            Topic: 92

    Prescribed burns are a critical aspect of land management, but they require vegetation data that is hard to obtain at high resolution and on the timescale required. Our autonomous UAV collects critical fire modeling variables through subcanopy flight, enabling rapid surveys for faster and safer burn planning. In Phase I, we proved the feasibility of mapping live fuel moisture content (LFMC) with s ...

  5. NDT of Fracture Toughness for Pipeline Steels

    SBC: FBS INC            Topic: 180PH1

    NDT of Fracture Toughness for Pipeline Steels3/16/2018Ultrasound-based technology to nondestructively determine fracture toughness of pipeline steels will be developed. Fracture toughness is the material parameter that, along with applied loading and flaw geometry, dictates the critical crack size, and therefore controls the flaw size that must be detected during inspections. A major challenge fac ...

  6. Development of a CO2 Breathing Anthropomorphic Test Device

    SBC: X-BIOMEDICAL INC            Topic: 23NH1

    Tragically, 936 children have died in hot cars since 1998. Wisely, NHTSA has prioritized evaluation of sensor systems in vehicles for “the ability to detect unattended children and prevent heat stroke occurrence.”Recently, innovators have developed systems that detect children present in the vehicle by measuring carbon dioxide (CO2) in the vehicle cabin, but there is no test method to assess w ...

  7. Live and Continuous Monitoring of Metal Cylinders and Tanks using Distributed Carbon Nanomaterial-based Sensing Networks

    SBC: MCET TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: 22PH1

    This SBIR effort proposes using live and continuous monitoring of metal tanks, pressure vessels, and pipelines using carbon nanomaterial-based sensing skins to detect excessive physical strains, cracks, and to inspect impact damage. The proposed research and development work leverages 15+ years of fundamental research. The key objective is to advance the TRL level and the scalability of carbon nan ...

  8. Artificial Intelligence Enabled Risk Assessment Tool for Condition-Based Sanitization of Public Transit Vehicles

    SBC: Interphase Materials, Inc.            Topic: 21FT2

    In response to the DOT’s FY21 SBIR topic 21-FT2, Interphase Materials (IPM) proposes the development of a low-cost automated data collection system that uses machine learning (ML), a type of artificial intelligence (AI), to predict and alert transit agencies of biological and viral contamination risks making condition-based sanitization possible for more effective and efficient operations.The CO ...

  10. Autonomous Environmental UAV Survey System for Wildfire Assessments

    SBC: Robotics 88, Inc.            Topic: 92

    Wildfire response planning is limited by the lack of high-resolution data for use in wildfire prediction. Wildfire models depend on many variables, including weather, topography, vegetation type and arrangement, fuel moisture content, and regional fire prevention measures, among others. Some of these variables are static or nearly so, but some of these are highly dynamic. In particular, live fuel ...
