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. GEOGENX: target disambiguation through spatiotemporal context

    SBC: VISION SYSTEMS INC            Topic: NGA201004

    Satellite platforms play a critical role in the modern defense and intelligence infrastructure, providing timely, detailed, and readily available imagery to support U.S. national security. An ever present and fundamental requirement for this type of data is automated target detection and recognition, helping to quickly locate and correctly identify targets from vast quantities of image data. Despi ...

  3. SKYSHOT: low-shot object detection through spatiotemporal context

    SBC: VISION SYSTEMS INC            Topic: NGA201004

    Satellite and airborne platforms provide timely, detailed, and readily available still and full-motion imagery to support U.S. national security. A constant requirement for this type of data is automated object detection and recognition, helping analysts to quickly locate and correctly identify targets of interest from vast quantities of image data. This requirement is made more challenging when a ...

  6. Geo-registration of Aerial Imagery Using 3-D Volumetric Models

    SBC: VISION SYSTEMS INC            Topic: NGA11001

    With the advancement of aerial imaging sensors, high quality data equipped with partial sensor calibration models is available. There is a recent research activity in computer vision community that aims to reconstruct 3-d structure of the observed scenes relying on the content of the imagery in fully automated ways. However the research has not matured into robust systems ready for operational set ...

  7. Open System Manufacturing of Large Sensing/Weapons Platforms

    SBC: Applied Radar, Inc.            Topic: SB102005

    In order to maintain our nation’s technological superiority on air, sea and land, we must respond quicker to emerging threats and reduce the cost of major sensing platforms. Every DoD platform developed nowadays contains at least one sensor, whether it be RF, EO/IR, or acoustic. In fact, in a lot of recent developments, the platform is built around the sensor and exists only to support the senso ...

  8. Alternative Aggregate Combat Modeling Algorithms

    SBC: Gnosys, Inc.            Topic: ST071003

    Gnosys, the University of Alabama in Huntsville, and SAIC propose that entity level performance data be “rolled-up” into aggregate performance data and used to resolve unit level combat at the unit level. Such an approach for conducting aggregate simulation would realize the advantage of employing validated entity level data but also keep the advantages inherent in aggregate simulation of com ...

  9. DGPS-Based Trilateration Positioning Receiver

    SBC: Swaszek Peter            Topic: 07FH1

    Positioning and navigation have become a mainstay of everyday life in the U.S.; applications of interest include navigation of vehicles of all kinds, infrastructure mapping, and safety of life systems. Many of these recent applications have become possible through the GPS. With the recognized vulnerabilities of GPS, it is evident that equivalent backup systems must be developed. One possible so ...

  10. Active RF Circulators

    SBC: Applied Radar, Inc.            Topic: SB052016

    The development of broadband high-isolation active circulators with simultaneous transmit and receive (STAR) capabilities would enable increased persistence in intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) systems and allow multiple simultaneous radar modes including SAR, GMTI and AMTI for global and local multifunction and multi-task operations. Previous works in MMIC active circulators dem ...
