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. IED Neutralization from an Air-Dropped Guided Munition

    SBC: Integrated Solutions for Systems, Inc.            Topic: DTRA182001

    Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) are a dangerous and effective weapon system that today’s military warfighters and innocent civilians regularly experience. IEDs are created with randomly assembled materials and their payloads may include projectiles, biological toxins, and other dangerous items that can cause injury or death to personnel and equipment. Detection and neutralization of these we ...

  2. IED neutralization from an airborne platform

    SBC: IMSAR LLC            Topic: DTRA182001

    In cooperation with the Joint Improvised-threat Defeat Organization (JIDO) and the U.S. Army, IMSAR LLC demonstrated its radar systems' ability to successfully detect IED emplacements from the RQ-7B Shadow Unmanned Aerial System (UAS). As part of the Army’s ShadowSAR program, IMSAR operated and maintained these Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) sensors for 4 ½ years in support of Operation Endurin ...

  3. A Compact and Fast Long-Wave Infrared (LWIR) Spectroscopy System for Aerosol Combustion

    SBC: OPTICSLAH, LLC            Topic: DTRA182003

    To fully understand the combustion dynamics when chemical warfare agents are detonated, fast time-scale diagnostics are needed. While computational modeling may provide insight into the different processes, experimental measurements are needed to verify and validate these models. Since the detonation or combustion of chemical agents can result in optically thick fireballs, innovative techniques mu ...

  4. Automated pattern recognition methods to identify nuclear explosions

    SBC: Acorn Science & Innovation, Inc.            Topic: DTRA182005

    Reliable automated pattern recognition in the current system is limited by excessive noise and clutter combined with insufficient and/or ambiguous features. Our team consisting of AcornSI and Leidos thus propose a multi-step approach based on the combined effects of improved detection, feature extraction, phase identification, and global association. A key innovation here is creating a new classif ...

  5. High Acceleration and Hypervelocity Inertial Measurement Unit

    SBC: ENGENIUSMICRO LLC            Topic: OSD181001

    Gun-launched applications currently expose inertial measurement units (IMUs) to harsh acceleration, shock, and vibration environments. Furthermore, as they become smarter, they present tighter constraints on size, weight, power, and cost (SWaP-C), while still requiring high levels of performance. New accelerometer technology must reduce SWaP-C while operating through high-g acceleration environmen ...

  6. High Acceleration and Hypervelocity Inertial Measurement Unit

    SBC: QUALITY SUPPORT, INC.            Topic: OSD181001

    OSD solicits vendors for a ‘High Acceleration and Hypervelocity Inertial Measurement Unit System’ for use in 155mm projectiles. Development of a gun-hardened and highly miniaturized IMU would revolutionize the way in which 155mm gun systems are employed. A 155mm projectile with guidance, navigation and control would enable the development of new systems such as precision gun launched missile d ...

  7. Electro-optical Seeker

    SBC: POLARIS SENSOR TECHNOLOGIES INC            Topic: OSD181002

    Mission times for high velocity projectiles (HVP) are very short and detection and discrimination of targets must happen quickly and decisively. One way to achieve this is through the enhanced contrast resulting from polarized sensing, which tends to highlight manmade objects and suppress natural background clutter. Thermal polarimetric sensing in a small package has been demonstrated already but ...

  8. Electro-optical Seeker Based on HgCdTe Photodetection

    SBC: EPISENSORS INC            Topic: OSD181002

    The capability to reliably and remotely detect and track tactical surface targets in a high-velocity projectile after launch is a critical need. The discrimination of man-made objects can be assisted by the detector technology, with options including two-color detectors and polarimetric filtering in the thermal infrared bands. The level of complexity in the focal plane array affects its survivabil ...

  9. Additively Manufactured Hybrid Windshields with Thermal Protection for Lightweight, Multifunctional, Hyper Velocity Projectiles

    SBC: GOODMAN TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: SCO182003

    One key concern of the Strategic Capabilities Office (SCO) is the security component of the “Asia-Pacific Rebalance” where the Chinese anti-access/area denial (A2/AD) policy threatens regional security. In response to A2/AD our forces in the Pacific require more affordable and rapidly deployable alternatives to costly missile defense such as large caliber projectiles for Navy electroma ...

  10. Few-shot Object detection via Reinforcement Control of Image Simulation (FORCIS)

    SBC: EXPEDITION TECHNOLOGY, INC.            Topic: SCO182006

    Few-shot Object detection via Reinforcement Control of Image Simulation (FORCIS) will combine deep reinforcement learning with additional training data augmentations and strategies to develop robust few shot detectors leveraging available simulations.
