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. An Energy-efficient and Self-diagnostic Portable Edge-Computing Platform for Traffic Monitoring and Safety

    SBC: CLR ANALYTICS INC            Topic: 23FH2

    Recent advances in technologies have shown great potential for widespread use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques in real-time Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) applications. However, the massive amounts of data collected and generated from ITS sensors pose a major challenge in data processing and transmission. This requires a shift from centralized repositories and cloud computing t ...

  3. Compact Broadband Leak Detector for Autonomous Vehicles

    SBC: ADELPHI TECHNOLOGY INC            Topic: 22PH2

    We propose to develop a hybrid leak detection system, utilizing real-time multisensory system and a compact gas chromatograph (GC) integrated in a single unit. The key advantages of our GC technology are utilization of scrubbed ambient air as a carrier gas and utilization of novel multisensory highly integrated platform as a GC detector. The outcome of this technology, is the ability to monitor a ...

  7. Additively Manufactured Metal Foam Rail Tank Car Structures

    SBC: INTELLIGENT OPTICAL SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: 20PH4

    Rail tank cars are routinely used to transport hazardous materials. Additionally, their use has increased appeal because pipeline construction increasingly has a political cost. Hazmat transport by rail is insecure, and the materials transported pose serious hazards to populations along railway lines in derailments and/or collisions, including fire and explosion, acute and chronic toxicity to expo ...

  10. Scalable Low-Cost AESA Transmitter with Phase-Only Nulling

    SBC: TECHNOVATIVE APPLICATIONS            Topic: SCO182002

    Active electronically scanned antennas (AESA) for radar have the potential to be low-cost provided the array architecture is designed for production using commercially available manufacturing processes. Most modern radar antennas employ some form of nulling to reduce sidelobes in key steering directions. For a transmit AESA the most cost effective implementation is to use phase only to steer the m ...
