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. Artificial Intelligence Enabled Screening for Limited Mobility Passengers using Advanced Imaging Technologies

    SBC: Analytical AI, LLC            Topic: DHS221006

    The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) operates security screening for all air passengers of outgoing aircraft. The Air Carrier Access Act of 1986 (ACAA) ensured access to air travel for passengers with disabilities, including mandating equal or similar treatment in the screening process. This ACAA requirement comports with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) which prohibits discri ...

  2. Advanced Machine Learning for Explosives Detection

    SBC: STREAMLINE AUTOMATION LLC            Topic: DHS231004

    Transportation Safety Officers (TSOs) currently use a multi-step decision tree to screen and resolve an alarm of a suspicious object in crowded and high-throughput environments, such as aviation and security checkpoints. In high-throughput environments, this can lead to information overload and mental fatigue. Homeland Security desires a more capable integrated Alarm Resolution (AR) sensor suite, ...

  3. ACIS: A Machine Learning Platform for Chemical Signature and Toxicity Prediction

    SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: DHS231007

    The rapid detection of highly toxic compounds, such as chemical warfare agents, toxic industrial compounds, pharmaceutical-based agents, and non-traditional agents, is paramount to industrial and national security. While multiple chemical detection platforms exist, the ability to detect toxic compounds is fundamentally limited by the available reference database of known chemical signatures. Recen ...

  4. Active Material Technology to Improve Solar Sail Performance for Space Weather Monitoring

    SBC: NEXOLVE HOLDING CO LLC            Topic: 96

    Development of a reflection control and direction device (RCDD) is proposed. This innovative device will progress the state of the art for propulsion of solar sails used to fly space weather monitoring sensors to sub-LaGrange point orbits for earlier warning times of impending destructive space weather events. A reflection control device (RCD) utilizes polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) mater ...

  5. Developing the Drought Risk Overview Product (DROP): Improving Flash Drought Forecasts and Early Warning Using Machine Learning and Extreme Value Theory Techniques

    SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: 91

    Drought is responsible for $327.7B in economic loss since 1980 in the United States and typically precedes, cooccurs, or initiates other hazards like wildfires or prolonged periods of intense heat. The compounding or cascading of these hazards routinely threatens the wellbeing and stability of communities. The economic impact from drought can be especially harsh when the drought begins rapidly in ...

  6. Extremely High Temperature EO/IR Aperture Materials Maturation and Manufacturing Development for High Speed Systems

    SBC: RELOGIC RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: AF221D005

    The DoD is looking for high temperature IR aperture materials to operate on high speed missile platforms including hypersonic vehicles. Current boost-glide vehicles require forward looking sensors in mounted flush on a doubly curved surface and placed in a forward-looking location on a high L/D body. Temperatures may reach or exceed 1800°C for limited portions over the course of flight. Aperture ...

  7. A Broadband and High Precision Comb Spectrometer for Diode-Pumped Alkali Lasers (DPALs)

    SBC: OPTICSLAH, LLC            Topic: MDA22T008

    Diode-pumped alkali lasers (DPALs) have inherently high optical-to-optical efficiency and thus the potential to reach megawatt-class average power lasers with near-diffraction limited beam quality. However, as DPALs scale up in power, a plasma is formed in the gain medium, resulting in lower efficiency and increased gas heating. This ultimately leads to a degradation in laser beam quality and a po ...

  8. Heterogeneous computing system with dynamic fault tolerance to radiation hardened commercial microelectronics (Hetero-Hard)

    SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: MDA21022

    In this work, we propose a heterogeneous computing system which can seamlessly integrate with the COTS part and provide design hardening against radiation without modifying the inherent design of the COTS part. In Phase I, we worked on the base design of proposed heterogeneous computing system using a digital COTS part as circuit under test (CUT). A machine learning based intelligent mathematical ...

  9. A Modular Framework for Optimization of Pursuit Evasion Strategies for Hypersonic Intercept

    SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: MDA21017

    The overall goal of this SBIR project is to develop a framework for creating simulation-based differential games for evaluation and optimization of pursuit and evasion strategies for hypersonic missile defense. In Phase I, the key software modules within the tool were developed, and proof-of-concept was demonstrated via case studies considering differential games of interest. Phase II efforts will ...
