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. Inflatable, UV Rigidizable Wings for High Altitude Aircraft

    SBC: Adherent Technologies, Inc.            Topic: SB072042

    DARPA is seeking technologies that will enable the production and use of high altitude, long endurance (HALE) aircraft. Requirements for this application include a light weight and low storage volume to allow easier delivery of the vehicle to such altitudes. Ultraviolet (UV) light rigidizable inflatable wings offer a means of achieving the high packing efficiency required as well as offering the ...

  2. Very-High-Altitude Propulsion System (VHAPS)

    SBC: AURORA FLIGHT SCIENCES CORPORATION            Topic: SB072045

    There is interest in an unmanned aircraft that can be deployed to a target via unconventional means and operate at very high altitudes for very long periods of time. These aircraft are envisioned to be stored in a sealed container for many months at a time, possibly folded up, stowed or deflated in a fashion more similar to a zodiac marine craft than an aircraft. A key technology required for su ...

  3. Reduction of Structural Mass Fraction for Extreme Solar HALE Flying Wings

    SBC: AURORA FLIGHT SCIENCES CORPORATION            Topic: SB072044

    Extreme HALE (high-altitude, long-endurance) aircraft typically require very long and thin wings. These super-lightweight wings tend to be highly susceptible to elastic instability (i.e., buckling). The maximum load such wings can sustain before buckling is generally much lower than the maximum load they can experience before yielding. Furthermore, for the critical high-altitude portion of a mis ...

  4. Novel Actuation and Control for Unmanned Underwater Riverine Craft (UURC) Shallow-Water Behavior

    SBC: BARRON ASSOCIATES, INC.            Topic: SB072040

    Military operations in littoral and riverine environments are increasingly important, and unmanned underwater riverine craft (UURC) are likely to play a key role in such operations providing surveillance, delivering payloads (including human divers), etc. Operation in the riverine environment, however, presents a number of unique difficulties, including tidal variations, complex currents and turbu ...

  5. A High Level Synthesis Tool for FPGA Design from Software Binaries

    SBC: BINACHIP, INC.            Topic: SB062006

    Many DOD systems require advanced digital signal processing and image processing functions that cannot be efficiently implemented on conventional micro-processors, hence designers have started mapping these applications onto FPGAs. However, most FPGA implementations are manually designed and highly coupled to the hardware, often taking advantage of special hardware features of the target FPGA. T ...

  6. A unified framework for false alarm reduction using scene context from airborne sensors

    SBC: ObjectVideo            Topic: SB072017

    This Small Business Innovation Research Phase I project will demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of utilizing scene and geometric context to improve target detection in aerial videos. The key innovation in this effort is a unified framework to place localized target detection in the context of the overall 3D scene, its constituents, and activities by modeling the interdependence of targe ...

  7. Superlens for 193nm Lithography

    SBC: LUNA INNOVATIONS INCORPORATED            Topic: SB072028

    Luna Innovations proposes to design and develop a superlens structure that will achieve 30nm resolution at 193nm wavelength for high resolution photolithography used in IC production in military and commercial applications. The unique design of the proposed superlens provides a means to overcome the problem of the absence of natural high-quality metal and sufficiently transparent dielectric materi ...
