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. Adaptive Optics Prototype for a Meter-class Telescope used for Space Surveillance

    SBC: Guidestar Optical Systems, Inc.            Topic: AF171023

    Guidestar Optical Systems (Guidestar) proposes to fabricate and deliver a prototype Adaptive Optics (AO) system for a meter class telescope used for Space Surveillance. This AO system was designed in the Phase I effort to integrate with a Government provided AO system. Through modeling and simulation, Guidestar demonstrated the ability to detect closely spaced objects at Geosynchronous orbit from ...

  2. Adaptive Zoom Collimator Design and Risk Reduction

    SBC: NUTRONICS, INC.            Topic: AF103018

    Ground-based testing of air / space-borne sensors & trackers (SBIRS, GMD, THAAD, etc.) requires achromatic optical collimation systems that can project dynamic scenes & targets at very large apparent distances. The collimation system must undergo major adjustments to optimally accommodate the FOV of various test articles, but the projection quality is extremely sensitive to misalignment of the lar ...

  5. Autonomous Suspended Load Stability Systems for SAR & Cargo Operations

    SBC: VITA INCLINATA TECHNOLOGIES INC            Topic: AF192D001

    Vita Inclinata has developed a solution to address the systemic capabilities gap in rotary wing suspended load operations- uncontrolled cable motion. Under the 183-001 Phase I effort , the team identified DoD service-wide Search and Rescue (SAR), Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape (SERE), and sling load teams who detailed the severity of external load rotary wing rescue missions due to non e ...

  6. Bonding Composite TRAC Booms for NASA Missions

    SBC: Roccor, LLC            Topic: AF171003

    An atmospheric plasma technique is being adapted to activate high strength steel surfaces for electroplating hard chrome and engineering nickel in landing gear applications. This atmospheric plasma technique allows the conventional abrasive blast and anodic etch techniques for surface activation to be removed from the electroplating processes to reduce the amount of material removed from the part, ...

  7. Catalytic N2O Decomposition for Piloted Scramjet Ignition

    SBC: REACTION SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: AF083121

    Achieving hypersonic flight with air breathing vehicles using logistics fuels is a demanding task. A significant challenge in the development of single use and reusable systems alike is ignition of the scramjet engine at low Mach numbers. Unfortunately, current ignition systems do not provide reliable performance at low Mach number. Therefore, there is a strong need for a significant ignition capa ...

  8. Cell-to-Cell Thermal/Projectile Communication Mitigation during Thermal Runaway in Batteries

    SBC: ADA TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: AF141071

    Lithium ion (Li-ion) batteries are ubiquitous in space and military applications, generating more efficient and effective systems. The increase in Li-ion cells also represents an increase in hazardous cell failure instances. Electrical shorting, overcharging, over-discharging, and physical damage to the cells can result in thermal runaway (TR), yielding violent and explosive events that can result ...

  10. COLLECTIVE/COOPERATIVE NAVIGATION

    SBC: NUMERICA CORPORATION            Topic: AF173011

    Position, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) is a critical capability that has become indispensable to the United States military, government services, and the commercial sector. As GPS-jamming technology becomes both more widely available and less costly, it becomes increasingly more critical to provide resilient navigation and timing independent of GPS. Under this effort, Numerica Corporation proposes ...
