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. 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 ...

  2. High Dynamic Range Real-Time LIDAR Digitizer and Processor

    SBC: Systems & Technology Research LLC            Topic: N192063

    Current LIDAR systems utilize photon shot noise limited detectors but the overall systems performance and application space is hindered with readout electronics that are lacking in terms of temporal resolution, dynamic range, SWAP or cost. In order to overcome this limitation, Systems and Technology Research (STR) will be applying a novel ADC architecture to create a 2 GSPS, 19-bit digitizer for L ...

  3. 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 ...

  4. 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 ...

  5. Improved Data Tracking System for Crew-Served Weapon Systems

    SBC: TRITON SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: N192081

    Triton Systems will apply our novel material design, mechanism and engineering expertise to develop an improved data tracking system for crew-served weapon systems including the GAU-17, GAU-21 and M240D. Our Team’s approach is focused on the development and deployment of two systems: the rounds counting weapon tracking system on the weapon and armory automation inventory control system. The Trit ...

  6. Augmented Reality for Maintenance of Aircraft with Ecological Displays and Artificial Intelligence-based Assistant (ARMADA)

    SBC: CHARLES RIVER ANALYTICS, INC.            Topic: N192065

    Navy maintenance personnel are faced with the critical tasks of diagnosing, repairing, and inspecting Navy hardware and equipment, including Navy aircraft assets. Successful maintenance is critical to the effectiveness, readiness, and safety of all Navy personnel, and reduces the costs of operation. Throughout the maintenance process, maintenance personnel make complex decisions regarding assessme ...

  7. CHEWBACCA: Collaborative Heuristic-based Engineering Workbench with a Behavior-Aware Classifier for Cognitive Assistance

    SBC: APTIMA INC            Topic: N192065

    The growing complexities of Naval air platforms have adversely affected maintenance operations. Particularly, the Navy is faced with mounting challenges in the interoperability of siloed data repositories: Maintenance crews have limited, often delayed, and mostly incomplete access to adequate data to perform their tasks. To address these gaps, Aptima and its partners, Apex Analytics Group and ASEC ...

  8. Joint User-centered Planning artificial Intelligence Tools for Effective mission Reasoning (JUPITER)

    SBC: CHARLES RIVER ANALYTICS, INC.            Topic: N19BT029

    Effective mission planning is critical for military strategy and execution. This process is complex as human operators must consider many variables (e.g., resource limitations, threats, risks) when formulating a plan to accomplish mission goals. Although powerful tools, such as the Navy’s Joint Mission Planning System (JMPS), provide advanced functionality, mission planning remains a hybrid acti ...

  9. Unmanned Airborne Reconfigurable Naval Communications Network

    SBC: ANALOG PHOTONICS LLC            Topic: N192079

    Analog Photonics (AP) proposes a free space optical link with fast, nonmechanical steering capable of transferring duplex gigabit data streams, tracking and holding to a dynamic receiver and full (360°) spatial coverage with minimal SWAP-C. The small size, low power consumption, and fast dynamic tuning of this solution makes it ideal for UAVs. Even though mW-level sources suffice in clear weather ...

  10. Robust, Low Permeability, Water-Filled Microcapsules

    SBC: TRITON SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: N19BT030

    Triton Systems proposes to develop a process to synthesize water filled microcapsules that are able to contain the water in the microcapsules for extended (years) periods of time. We will develop accelerated aging tests to measure the water loss over the equivalent of 20 years of more. We will also measure the mechanical strength of the microcapsules before and during exposure to jet fuel, and whe ...
