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. Rapidly Integrated Tactical Communications Payload

    SBC: CESIUMASTRO INC            Topic: N181090

    The major challenge in constellation-wide deployment of tactical payloads in low-Earth orbit (LEO) lies in achieving the performance requirements that are imposed by constellation dynamics while maintaining a design simplicity that is compatible with large-scale production, along with typical constraints on size, mass, and power consumption. Cesium’s proposed solution is a small reconfigurable p ...

  2. Low Cost Persistent Environmental Measurement System

    SBC: BOSTON ENGINEERING CORPORATION            Topic: N181012

    Proteus is an inexpensive, long duration, expendable profiler that collects ocean data for the Navy. The data, transmitted via satellite and made available via a remote portal, enhances existing and future capabilities by characterizing seasonal changes in ocean properties including salinity, temperature, optical properties, and ocean background noise. Proteus is capable of being air deployed from ...

  4. Physiologically Assessed Ratings of Aircraft Operation and Handling (PHARAOH)

    SBC: CHARLES RIVER ANALYTICS, INC.            Topic: N192071

    The Navy relies on handling quality ratings (HQRs) for evaluation of its aircraft to ensure that it can maintain, train, and equip combat-ready forces. The aviator’s perspective is vital for assessing aircraft handling, but can be difficult to obtain from Pilots without distracting them or relying on their memory. Pilot physiological state fluctuates with the amount of workload required to handl ...

  5. SWIFT: Sensors-based Workload Insight for Flight Testing

    SBC: APTIMA INC            Topic: N192071

    The assessment of aircraft flying qualities and the resultant impact on pilot workload is critical for the evaluation and tuning of aircraft configurations. A reliance on subjective self-report ratings and an inability to account for cross-pilot variability lead to reliability concerns when evaluating flying qualities for aircraft under specific tasks and conditions. Despite advances in the quanti ...

  6. Secure Communications Link Between Robotics and Autonomous Systems

    SBC: TRITON SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: N192075

    Traditional RF (Radio Frequency) communications are increasingly susceptible to jamming, interception, and even detection. Free space optics can mitigate these issues while adding benefits such as bandwidth and a highly directional nature. In order to make this happen, a highly developed system must be constructed consisting of exceedingly precise control systems and novel beam steering techniques ...

  8. High Performance Hybrid Nano-composite Gun Lubricant Coating

    SBC: UNITED PROTECTIVE TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: N192057

    The M197 Gatling gun is a useful and highly effective battlefield weapon used on a variety of rotary wing aircraft. Unfortunately, the heat and wear caused by its high rate of fire requires preventative maintenance procedures to ensure combat readiness. Lubricants have been implemented to reduce wear and inhibit corrosion on its steel components, but their application requires more frequent mainte ...

  9. Nano-Hardened Electroplated Coatings for Improved Rotary Cannon Lifespan

    SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP            Topic: N192057

    Rotary cannon type weapons, such as the M197 electric cannon, currently require servicing every 28 days in order to remove abrasive particulate and to relubricate the rotary drum. The Navy is currently seeking a one-time application coating, applied at the time of manufacturing or retrofit, which will at least double the time between servicing to 56 days or more. Mainstream Engineering proposes to ...
