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. Preprocessing Method for Enhanced Aiming and Discrimination

    SBC: Physical Optics Corporation            Topic: MDA12028

    To address the MDA need to improve the performance of bulk filtering against nonthreatening flying objects, POC proposes to develop a new Preprocessing Method for Enhanced Aiming and Discrimination (PreMFEAD). This proposed technology is based on signal conditioning and statistical processing. The innovation in PreMFEAD will enable reliable and fast target acquisition, identification, and aiming, ...

  2. Detailed Lethality Assessments for Flight Test Events

    SBC: ADVANCED SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS, LLC            Topic: MDA12030

    Defensive missiles are being developed to intercept reentry vehicles and tactical ballistic missiles before their conventional, chemical and nuclear warheads can reach their targets. Both hit-to-kill (HTK) interceptors and fragmentation warheads are being devised. The proposed R & D will develop an ultra-high speed framing camera that will photograph the last 100 microseconds before collision. F ...

  3. Solid State High Energy Laser Batteries and Power Sources

    SBC: Lithiumstart LLC            Topic: MDA12019

    The US DoD Missile Defense Agency (MDA) is working to acquire laser based strategic Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) technologies. The laser platform will be airborne, ideally on an aircraft with long range, extended loitering time, and stealth capabilities. The system needs to scale up to 10 megawatts. Any laser solution requires a power source, and laser power sources with the required le ...

  4. Dynamic Frequency Passive Millimeter-Wave Radiometer Based on Optical Up-Conversion

    SBC: PHASE SENSITIVE INNOVATIONS INC            Topic: 941D

    In the proposed effort, we will leverage this extensive experience and capabilities to realize a frequency agile mmW radiometer that can cover the range of DC-110 GHz and can be scaled to DC-200 GHz under Phase II. Ours is a photonic system that multiplies and up-coverts a low-frequency reference signal onto an optical carrier (laser) using EO modulation, then uses the modulation sidebands to inj ...

  5. Automated Image Analysis for Fisheries Applications

    SBC: TOYON RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: 921F

    We propose to develop software that is capable of automatically classifying and measuring the length of fish observed in video. We will focus initially on underwater video, but much of the software will also be applicable to fish onboard commercial fishing vessels as well. Our approach is to first segment fish based on their motion in the water. For this purpose, we will make use of existing au ...

  6. An Advanced Algorithm for Radar Derived Bathymetry

    SBC: Arete Associates            Topic: 913N

    NOAA can reduce costs and improve efficiency by remotely monitoring harbors, navigation channels, and coastlines for bathymetric changes. This will aid NOAA in its mission to maintain waterways and assure maritime safety. This remote sensing can be accomplished by implementing a new radar derived bathymetry capability. Areté Associates proposes to demonstrate an advanced algorithm to derive ba ...

  7. Mobile VHF Lightning Mapping System

    SBC: TOYON RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: 942RDW

    Toyon Research Corporation proposes to develop a mobile VHF-based sensor suite for detecting and mapping lightning flashes. The proposes Lightning Mapping Unmanned Sensor (LUTMUS)™ System will meet small unmanned aerial system (UAS) cost, size, weight, and power (C-SWAP) constraints and should be capable of being placed on virtually any small UAS. The most critical component of the LITMUS syst ...

  8. Highly Elastic Sensors for High Shock Environments

    SBC: Tanner Research, Inc.            Topic: MDA12034

    One advanced material found to survive high G-forces while making accurate inertial measurements is thermo plastic formed (TPF) Bulk Metallic Glass (BMG). Unlike MEMS-based silicon components which have historically shattered when used in higher-stress gun-launched applications, Tanner Research and Yale University successfully demonstrated BMG use as an alternative materials technology that survi ...

  9. NexGen Electro-Explosive Ordnance Device with BIT

    SBC: Tanner Research, Inc.            Topic: MDA12031

    The most reliable one-shot electro-explosive ordnance device (EED) available for initiating next generation (NexGen) insensitive energetics is thought to be an exploding foil initiator (EFI) detonator, also called a slapper detonator. Slapper detonators are similar to exploding bridgewire (EBW) detonators but less prone to failure because the exploding foil is physically separated from the NexGen ...

  10. Ultra-miniature Inertial Measurement Sensor

    SBC: Physical Optics Corporation            Topic: MDA12034

    To address the Missile Defense Agency"s need to accurately measure inertial movement in a stressing flight environment, Physical Optics Corporation (POC) proposes to develop a new Miniature Inertial Measurement Sensor (MIMS). This proposed sensor is based on a solid-state accelerometer design with a semiconductor laser diode self-mixing interferometric technique and a microsphere gyroscope based o ...
