The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY23 is not expected to be complete until September, 2024.

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. Improving Analysis of Large Multidimensional Data through Parallel Processing & Explorative Visualization

    SBC: Frontier Technology Inc.            Topic: MDA18T001

    Using a combination of parallel processing and explorative visualization, a new and exciting solution for high-performance visual analysis of large multidimensional data is proposed. Steady volume flows are selected to demonstrate the strategy, methodology, techniques, and functionalities. Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) platforms will be adopted to unleash the power of explorative ...

  2. Carbon nanotube coatings on electrochemical textured surfaces for advanced adsorptive baffles

    SBC: Faraday Technology, Inc.            Topic: MDA18T003

    This proposed STTR program addresses the challenge of developing advanced absorptive baffles to minimize stray and reflected light across the visible and infrared wavebands for exo-atmospheric optical sensors and seeker telescopes. To achieve this goal Faraday Technology and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory will develop electrochemically textured pyramidal surfaces with CNT black coatings as ...

  3. Advanced Data Management and Mining for BMDS Digital Simulations

    SBC: EDAPTIVE COMPUTING INC            Topic: MDA18011

    The MDA relies on complex simulations to test and enhance capabilities of the ballistic missile defense system. This requires extensive simulation and analysis of results. As simulations become more advanced, they produce more data. It is essential to begin now to develop improved techniques to manage this increased data and make it more accessible for analysis. Simulation data must be analyzed to ...

  4. Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) for Space-based Applications

    SBC: IDEAS ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY LLC            Topic: MDA18015

    The use of GPUs in space is desirable as they provide means to boost the performance of CPU-based computers in a spacecraft. This will enable the processing of raw sensing data on-board, reducing significantly the amount of data that needs to be transmitted to the ground. This represents savings in power and radio link bandwidth/complexity. Unfortunately, as all microelectronics, modern GPUs are s ...

  5. Compact, Light-weight, High Power Handling Fiber Coupled Optical Isolator

    SBC: SRICO INC            Topic: MDA18017

    Fiber optic isolators are critical to prevent deleterious back-reflection effects in high power optical fiber laser systems. To address coherent beam combining (CBC) and other high optical power DoD applications, a compact and power scalable fiber coupled in-line isolator is currently needed that can operate at 1064 nm at forward optical power levels over 100 W, with optical loss less than 0.2 dB ...

  6. Advanced NPB Low Energy Beam Transport Technologies

    SBC: Little Prairie Services            Topic: MDA18019

    In the near thirty years since the BEAR experiment, many technologies directly or indirectly applicable to an advanced neutral particle beam (NPB) have emerged due to other DOD programs, commercial investments, or other government programs. Key elements of a space-based NPB system include mass, size, and efficiency. The work proposed herein results from investments in the commercial arena, primari ...

  7. Ink-based 3D Electronics Printing for Missile System Applications

    SBC: Microcvd Corporation            Topic: MDA18024

    Missile system development would benefit if electrical and electronic devices could be conformally printed on structural components. Additive Manufacturing (AM) technologies capable of creating electronics on flexible substrates offer the possibility of integrating circuitry throughout missile structural and support systems. Ink-based printing has been demonstrated to produce flexible, conformal e ...

  8. Single Cell Carbide Fueled Thermionic Fuel Element

    SBC: Applied Sciences Inc.            Topic: N/A

    If you can't beat them, join them. Such is the philosophy of Space Exploration Associates, who hired the top talent in Russian and the new Republic of Georgia to develop advanced thermionic converters for SDIO. Unlike other highly publicized exchanged with the Russians, this work will be done in the US and no hardware will cross international lines. The metallurgical wizards from the East have con ...

  9. Joining Carbon Composite Fins to Titanium Heat Pipes

    SBC: Applied Sciences Inc.            Topic: N/A

    Everybody knows that composites have high strength, low density, and great thermal properties. They would be great for a number of applications such as fins for spacecraft radiators. So why aren't they used more on spacecraft thermal systems? One reason is joining technology. Although many methods such as brazing and adhesives have been developed for joining composites to metals, these methods are ...

  10. High Performance Arcjet Engines

    SBC: Applied Sciences Inc.            Topic: N/A

    IT IS PROPOSED THAT ADVANCED ARCJET ENGINES CAN BE DEVELOPED USING KNOWN PRINCIPLES FOR ADVANCED NOZZLE DESIGN, ARC ATTACHMENT, INCREASED CHAMBER EFFECTIVE TEMPERATURE AND SO FORTH. SUCH STUDIES ARE PARTIALLY SUPPORTED BY EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS BY RESEARCHERS IN THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION. YET THESE PRINCIPLES RESULT IN INCREASED HEATING OF THE ANODE, AS THE ARC MORE EFFECTIVELY HEATS THE ANODE. THIS CA ...
