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. 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 ...

  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 ...

  3. 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 ...

  5. Synoptic Approach to Harmonize Discrete Data Streams in Application Development

    SBC: IT WORKS! INC.            Topic: 180NH1

    Research conducted in Phase I identified a range of data sources providing vehicle related information to consumers shopping around or interested in knowing more about vehicles. Majority of the commercial data sources focused on vehicle features, new/used/CPO pricing, and vehicles listings. Such data sources lacked safety as their central focus, which is a concern for U.S. Department of Transporta ...

  7. 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 ...

  8. SatMod: Bayesian Inference of Spacecraft Geometry and Pose

    SBC: VISION SYSTEMS INC            Topic: AF17AT007

    Increases in space traffic have caused an ever-growing need to recognize, track, and inspect both known and unknown satellites in-situ. Imagery from ground observation platforms provide a convenient and versatile data source for such characterization but is often limited in both quantity and quality. Rapid and automated 3D reconstruction of satellite models from limited 2D imagery would significan ...

  9. Dual-mode Energetics

    SBC: Rocky Mountain Scientific Laboratory, LLC            Topic: AF173012

    RMSL has identified several potential propellant formulations that show promise in dual mode applications. These formulations include: (1) development of a novel organic oxidizer and (2) the mechanical modification of traditional nitramine propellants to tune propulsion and detonability performance. Preliminary analysis suggested that the proposed new explosive, MHX, had promise for dual-mode appl ...
