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. An Innovative Mass Spectrometer to Simplify Materials Characterization for Additive Manufacturing

    SBC: EXUM INSTRUMENTS, INC.            Topic: 2

    Exum Instruments’ Massbox is a single analytical instrument that offers rapid, high-sensitivity measurements of additive manufacturing (AM) feedstock powders and printed parts. Determining chemical composition for any manufactured material is critical to understanding and predicting a part’s performance. Current methods of chemical characterization are difficult and time-consuming, requiring m ...

  2. Multispectral Fluorescence Sensing of Airborne Proxy Infectious Particles in Actual Indoor Environments

    SBC: RATIOCINATIVE ENGINEERING SERVICES LLC            Topic: 2

    Filtering airborne infectious particles from indoor air is a critical element in controlling the spread of disease during COVID and future pandemics that are transmitted through the air. The aim of this proposed research from Ratiocinative Engineering Services, LLC is to develop a testbed that will lead to more accessible and robust quality control testing of air filtration and ventilation systems ...

  3. Ocean Color and Cloud Monitor (OCCAM)

    SBC: ATMOSPHERIC & SPACE TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH ASSOCIATES LLC            Topic: 9601

    The Ocean Color and Cloud Monitor (OCCaM) is a hyperspectral based instrument suite with ocean color and cloud observational capabilities. Following the successful Phase I SBIR design period, the Phase II effort will focus on the integration of the Phase I design into a benchtop unit for testing and validation of the design concept. The payload was designed to meet the SWaP requirements of a comme ...

  4. A Low-Cost Atmospheric Aerosol Monitoring System for Boundary Layer Air Quality, Visibility, Cloud Ceiling Height and Aerosol Properties

    SBC: BJE ENVIRONMENTAL OPTICS LLC            Topic: 9601

    This proposal addresses subtopic 9.6.01, Low-cost Oceanic and Atmospheric Sensors and Observing Systems. It is proposed that two instruments for measuring atmospheric aerosols be commercialized to operate automatically and routinely. Both instruments have been used in research settings for many years and share several aspects of technology. They could both be commercialized with significant advant ...

  5. Enabling BLOS UAS Operations through a Diverse-Source Global Positioning System

    SBC: BLACK SWIFT TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: 9501

    Enabling BLOS operations in the National Airspace System is largely an issue of improved sensing. Under the UTM rules, BLOS operations require performance authorization from the FAA centered around navigation, communications, sharing of intent, avoiding other aircraft, and connecting to the FAA in near real-time. The current plan initially is for these performance metrics to be evaluated by the FA ...

  6. Optimization of high resolution multispectral satellite imagery collection for Arctic conditions through custom sensor parameterization and multi-sensor integration for through-the-water space-based seafloor imaging in support of coastal hydrographic surv

    SBC: TCARTA MARINE LLC            Topic: 9603

    A long time ago before GPS, satellites and multibeam sonars one Old Man and the Sea thought, “It is better to be lucky. But I would rather be exact. Then when luck comes you are ready.” There is no room for luck when conducting hydrographic surveying in Arctic coastal waters. Satellites can play a key role in operational efficiency, cost effective use of existing technology and risk reduction. ...

  7. An Innovative Mass Spectrometer to Simplify Materials Characterization for Additive Manufacturing

    SBC: EXUM INSTRUMENTS, INC.            Topic: 2

    Characterizing the chemical components of additive manufacturing feedstock powders determines the final parts’ material properties and performance. Currently, feedstock chemical characterization involves multiple analytical techniques and industry standards. Although traditional spectrometry measures both the material’s major and residual constituents, it requires a highly trained analytical c ...

  8. Easy-to-use, Autonomous Bin-picking and Assembly Operations for the Manufacturing Industry

    SBC: Robotic Materials Inc.            Topic: 90

    We will develop a series of object manipulation primitives to pick up and assemble standard mechanical parts such as screws, gears and pulleys that can be configured without any programming skills. Building up on a smart robotic gripper, 3D perception and machine learning algorithms, we will design a graphical user interface that allows an user to label arbitrary 3D objects, identify assembly poin ...

  9. Small Satellite Cloud Observation System

    SBC: ATMOSPHERIC & SPACE TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH ASSOCIATES LLC            Topic: 9601

    We propose the design of an optical instrument package capable of making cloud observations and deployable on a CubeSat. The design will be based on decades of research in cloud remote sensing and each spectral channel will be comprised of a commercial-off-the-shelf camera and a spectral filter as needed. The base design will be comprised of three channels, two in the shortwave infrared and one in ...
