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. Efficient Realistic Conjunction Analysis (EReCA)

    SBC: STELLAR SCIENCE LTD. CO.            Topic: H9

    The number of artificial objects orbiting the Earth today creates a challenging environment for the protection and safe operation of satellites. With the rise of micro-satellites, nano-satellites, and communications and sensing constellations consisting of hundreds of satellites, the space population is certain to multiply at a robust pace during the next decades of spaceflight, further exacerbati ...

  2. Imaging, Filtered Light Scattering Velocity Diagnostic

    SBC: SOUTHWEST SCIENCES INC            Topic: A2

    The boundary layer plays a critical role in aerodynamics, acting as a barrier to the transfer of momentum from the air to the flight vehicle. In-flight measurements of velocity fields in the boundary layer could be used to establish the transition point to turbulent flow. This Phase I SBIR project will investigate a novel method for imaging flow velocity based on filtered light scattering. It does ...

  3. Multigas Diode Laser Instrument for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

    SBC: SOUTHWEST SCIENCES INC            Topic: S1

    A diode laser instrument for simultaneously measuring methane, nitrous oxide, carbon monoxide, and water vapor onboard an unmanned aerial vehicle will be developed in this project. Wavelength modulation absorption spectroscopy will be used to perform the measurements at a 10 Hz rate. The system will use a compact open path multipass cell to provide the necessary optical pathlength. Three mid-infra ...

  4. Real-Time Airborne Infra-Red Carbon Dioxide Analyzer

    SBC: VISTA PHOTONICS, INC.            Topic: S107

    Environmental species measurement on airborne atmospheric research craft is a demanding application for optical sensing techniques. Yet optical techniques offer many advantages including high-precision, fast response, and high species selectivity. Balloonsonde, kite, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), or glider deployment demands that sensors meet stringent size, weight and power requirements. Few mea ...

  5. Instrument for Airborne Measurement of Carbonyl Sulfide

    SBC: SOUTHWEST SCIENCES INC            Topic: S107

    Southwest Sciences proposes to develop small, low power instrumentation for the real-time direct measurement of carbonyl sulfide (OCS) in the atmosphere, especially targeting airborne measurements. The instrument will be based on a recently introduced room temperature interband cascade laser (ICL) operating in the 4830 nm region. This laser has a substantially reduced (by a factor of approximate ...

  6. Passive Technology to Improve Criticality Control of NTP Reactors

    SBC: Ultra Safe Nuclear Corporation            Topic: H202

    The objective of this SBIR is to investigate passive technology that will enable criticality control of a Nuclear Thermal Propulsion (NTP) reactor during a burn with little to no mechanical movement of the circumferential control drums. Specifically, this work will study passive reactor design features that mitigate and counteract the effects of 135Xe, the dominant fission product contributing to ...

  7. Wideband Autonomous Cognitive Radios for Networked Satellites Communications

    SBC: BLUECOM SYSTEMS & CONSULTING LLC            Topic: T501

    There is growing recognition that success in a variety of space mission types can be greatly enhanced by making current communication transceivers and networks evolve towards networked communication systems that are intelligent, self-aware and thus can support greater levels of autonomy. This will be especially relevant as networked clusters of smaller-size satellites, made of CubeSats or microsat ...

  8. High heat flux Enhanced Acquisition and Transport system for Small spacecraft

    SBC: LOADPATH, LLC            Topic: S307

    Future small-spacecraft thermal engineers and integrators will contend with increasing spacecraft power and temperature variations resulting from challenging new missions in extreme environments. The LoadPath High heat flux Enhanced Acquisition and Transport system for Small spacecraft (HEATS) is an innovative, passive, two-phase thermal transport system that will help realize these missions of to ...

  9. Cloud Droplet Characterization System for Unmanned Aircraft

    SBC: MESA PHOTONICS LLC            Topic: S304

    Atmospheric clouds have strong impact on the global radiative budget. Cloud's radiative properties are strongly affected by droplet size distribution and number concentration. This SBIR project will develop an innovative, compact and inexpensive droplet measurement system (DMS), which will provide in situ measurement of droplet size distribution function and droplet number concentration in clouds. ...

  10. Compact Raman Air Sensor

    SBC: MESA PHOTONICS LLC            Topic: T601

    Mesa Photonics, in collaboration with the College of Optics and Photonics (CREOL) at the University of Central Florida, proposes to develop a spacesuit gas sensor based upon its Enhanced Raman Gas Sensor (ERGS) technology. The goal a moisture tolerant, drop-in replacement for the current CO2 sensor. Preliminary work achieved detection sensitivities for CO2, CH4, O2, and N2 of 1000, 300, 1000 and 1 ...
