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. Building Recognition by Function

    SBC: KITWARE INC            Topic: ST081009

    The activity surrounding a building can provide functional information that is not available in static imagery. We propose to develop a method to classify buildings based on observed video activity that addresses the primary challenges of noisy, partial observables, and urban environments where buildings are close together. Our approach is based on probabilistic modeling of the activity surroundin ...

  2. TeraHertz Atmospheric & Ionospheric Propagation, Absorption and Scattering (TAIPAS)

    SBC: COLORADO ENGINEERING INC.            Topic: A09AT001

    Radio wave propagation models have steadily advanced during the past several decades producing what is widely recognized as a set of standard models for the attenuation, dispersion and nominal path of radio waves at frequencies within the radio region of the spectrum (i.e., which we define for these purposes as ~ 100 KHz to ~3 THz) with a focus on .1-1THz. Colorado Engineering, Inc. and the Unive ...

  3. Retrodirective Noise Correlating Radar with Real-Time Imaging of Sniper Bullets and Terrain

    SBC: HELIOS REMOTE SENSING SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: A09AT017

    Helios Remote Sensing Systems and SRC will develop an automatic short-range ballistics search-track-imaging system that provides to individual soldiers a unique capability for rapidly determining the location of threats that would reduce injuries and casualties. By leveraging recent breakthroughs in retrodirective auto-cued radars, 360° video imaging technology, and cell phone technology, we pla ...

  4. Automated Approaches to Cellular Engineering and Biomanufacturing

    SBC: Covitect Inc.            Topic: ST12B003

    Genome-scale predictable cellular design and engineering of biomanufacturing systems is the overarching a goal of DARPA's Living Foundry thrust and, if realized, will enable rapid engineering of living biosystems for a broad range of applications in biotechnology and pharmacology. However, constructing living cells with designed genome is not fully automated and is severely limited by inhere ...

  5. THz and Sub-THz MEMS-Fabricated Klystron Amplifier

    SBC: TRUENANO, INC.            Topic: A09AT016

    TrueNano Inc. will develop the process technology of a miniature klystron capable of amplifying sub-mm waves resulting in record power. Our novel approach is based on a novel high current cold cathode and a tunable resonant cavity. Fabrication techniques as those developed for MEMS will be used, resulting in well controlled dimensions, precision alignment and vacuum tight sealing. A monitoring tec ...

  6. Inhibiting Prolyl Hydroxylase to Mimic Natural Acclimatization to High Altitude to Improve Warfighter Performance at High Altitude

    SBC: Research Logistics Company            Topic: SOCOM17C001

    Acclimatization is the long-term adjustment that humans experience when exposed for weeks or months to high altitude. Acclimatization is important in this context because a warfighter who is acclimatized to high altitude is immune to high altitude illness, has superior work capacity, and has cognitive function approaching that found at sea level. In other words, the acclimatized warfighter is opti ...

  7. Explainable Query Refinement for Human Machine Teaming

    SBC: KITWARE INC            Topic: SOCOM18B001

    The Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) analysts have a challenging task to extract useful information from huge volumes of data from various sources like Full Motion Video (FMV), Wide Area Motion Imagery (WAMI), satellite imagery, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), and others. Modern Machine Learning (ML) algorithms based on deep learning have greatly advanced computer vision, speech ...

  8. Assess Stability and Anti-Fragility of Dense Urban Terrains

    SBC: Cordillera Applications Group, Inc.            Topic: ST17C003

    The objective of this proposal is to examine the feasibility of defining and measuring key dimensions of an urban system to include its essential functions and networks, and whether they can be modelled in a computational framework for assessing robustness and resilience of DUTs (and their tipping points) under conditions of volatility and stress. This proposal will conduct a comprehensive review ...

  9. Buoyancy-Driven Energy System Powered by Seafloor Methane and Other Gases

    SBC: CREARE LLC            Topic: ST18C005

    Seafloor methane is an abundant resource that can be exploited to produce power. Developing a power system for this application is challenging because suitable oxidizers are not readily available on the seafloor. In response, Creare proposes to develop a Buoyancy-Driven Turboalternator Energy System to produce electric power from seafloor methane without oxidation reactions. This innovative system ...

  10. Processes for Fabrication of Atomically Precise Strongly Correlated Materials

    SBC: XALLENT INC.            Topic: ST17C002

    Developing knowledge-driven nanoelectronics for military applications requires understanding the fundamental physics that governs the behavior of the underlying materials. Strongly correlated materials have very desirable properties such as interfacial superconductivity, ferroelectricity, ferromagnetism, and huge magnetoresistance, which make them an ideal set of candidates to integrate with semic ...
