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. ACHIEVING COMMERICALLY-VIABLE ROBUST VIDEO-BASED UNSTRUCTURED SCENE UNDERSTANDING SYSTEMS

    SBC: ALPHATECH, INC.            Topic: N/A

    Today's commercial video surveillance and monitoring (VSAM) systems are capable of producing enormous video streams that are over-whelming for human operators to review. But with automated intelligent interpretation of the imagery we can track and classifymoving objects of interest, collect spatial and temporal motion statistics, and detect anomalous behaviors. We propose to transition image under ...

  2. A Comparison of Methods to Detect and Eliminate Secondary Target Returns from Adaptive Radar Training Data

    SBC: ALPHATECH, INC.            Topic: N/A

    For SAR, spatial and temporal adaptive processing (STAP) uses samples local to the cell being processed to estimate local clutter and noise statistics. If these samples are corrupted by returns from other unknown targets, the statistics are invalid and theperformance of the algorithms can be degraded. We propose to conduct a range of experiments to evaluate signal detection, statistical, multi-loo ...

  3. Adaptive Communication System for Extreme Power Line Networks

    SBC: NORTHERN MICRODESIGN, INC.            Topic: SB043038

    An ad-hoc networking method is proposed for use over existing power lines in large commercial buildings. The network is minimally sensitive to lossy elements such as distribution transformers and tripped or OFF circuit breakers and hardware may be made interoperable with existing power line communication systems. Adaption performance of the network is programmable so that various sensor requirem ...

  4. Adaptive Multi-Media Streaming for Android (AMMSTAR)

    SBC: MZEAL COMMUNICATIONS, INC.            Topic: SB102002

    Use of"Smartphones"and cellular networks is becoming an increasing priority for military applications. By placing the source of information directly with the solider on the ground via a Smartphone, the vision of"every soldier a sensor"becomes attainable. mZeal proposes to facilitate this vision with the Adaptive Multi-Media Streaming for Android (AMMSTAR) system. AMMSTAR will capture photographic ...

  5. Advanced Tracking Techniques for FOPEN GMTI Radars

    SBC: ALPHATECH, INC.            Topic: N/A

    The utility of continuously tracking vehicles in a battlefield has been demonstrated during the Gulf War and other recent conflicts. However, the ability to achieve reliable continuous tracking in many environments will require the use of FOPEN radar andefficient use of sensor resources. In this effort we extend current research to include heterogeneous terrain and apply this model to simulations. ...

  7. A Protoflight High Specific Power Electric Propulsion System

    SBC: MSNW LLC            Topic: SB101012

    The Electromagnetic Plasmoid Thruster (EMPT) has demonstrated the ability to ionize, electromagnetically accelerate, and eject a broad range of complex and chemically-reactive molecular gases, including monopropellants. EMPT has the potential to dramatically increase the operational range of existing electric propulsion (EP) systems in both power density, power throttling, and propellant choice. P ...

  8. A "Smart Skin" Array for Reconfigurable Hypersonic MHD Effects

    SBC: PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC.            Topic: SB032031

    Research Support Instruments, Inc. (RSI), with the aid of Princeton University, proposes to use an innovative sensor/actuator package to provide a critical component for multifunctional hypersonic vehicle structures. An integrated array of microfabricated pressure sensors and ionizers will provide a "smart skin" atop a reconfigurable magnetic array. The high-bandwidth sensors will detect develo ...

  9. Arachne: A Modular Teleoperated Mobility and Sensor System for Insinuation into Collapsed Structures

    SBC: FOSTER-MILLER, INC.            Topic: SB041018

    Events in recent years have emphasized the need for a small, highly mobile system that can effectively insinuate a sensor payload into underground or collapsed structures. In the aftermath of the World Trade Center disaster, robots showed great promise in aiding search and rescue by penetrating into areas too dangerous for personnel to enter. However, their relatively large size (on the order of ...

  10. A Rubust System for Automated Video-Based Vehicle Recognition

    SBC: ALPHATECH, INC.            Topic: SB031015

    We propose an end-to-end video-based system for online class recognition of moving vehicles observed by a passive stationary camera. SAVOR (or System for Automated Video-based Object Recognition) continuously detects, tracks, and classifies vehicles within the camera's field of view in real time, additionally providing a live operator display and archiving data and results for later analysis. To o ...
