Award Data
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.

IED neutralization from an airborne platform
SBC: IMSAR LLC Topic: DTRA182001In cooperation with the Joint Improvised-threat Defeat Organization (JIDO) and the U.S. Army, IMSAR LLC demonstrated its radar systems' ability to successfully detect IED emplacements from the RQ-7B Shadow Unmanned Aerial System (UAS). As part of the Army’s ShadowSAR program, IMSAR operated and maintained these Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) sensors for 4 ½ years in support of Operation Endurin ...

Automated pattern recognition methods to identify nuclear explosions
SBC: Acorn Science & Innovation, Inc. Topic: DTRA182005Reliable automated pattern recognition in the current system is limited by excessive noise and clutter combined with insufficient and/or ambiguous features. Our team consisting of AcornSI and Leidos thus propose a multi-step approach based on the combined effects of improved detection, feature extraction, phase identification, and global association. A key innovation here is creating a new classif ...

A Compact and Fast Long-Wave Infrared (LWIR) Spectroscopy System for Aerosol Combustion
SBC: OPTICSLAH, LLC Topic: DTRA182003To fully understand the combustion dynamics when chemical warfare agents are detonated, fast time-scale diagnostics are needed. While computational modeling may provide insight into the different processes, experimental measurements are needed to verify and validate these models. Since the detonation or combustion of chemical agents can result in optically thick fireballs, innovative techniques mu ...

HOLOGRAPHIC PATTERN RECOGNITION FOR ARMS CONTROL
SBC: EMPIRICAL TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION Topic: N/ATHE CONTRACTOR HAS PATENTED TECHNOLOGY FOR A UNIQUE PROCESS THAT DIRECTLY CONVERTS AN ACOUSTIC SIGNAL INTO A VISIBLE ONE IN REAL-TIME WITHOUT ELECTRONIC CIRCUITRY. THIS RELIES ON THE ACOUSTO-OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF A CONTINUOUS LAYER OF LIQUID CRYSTAL THIN FILM LAYER WHICH SERVES AS BOTH THE SENSOR AND THE DISPLAY. THE IMAGE CAN BE VIEWED DIRECTLY BY MEANS OF CCD CAMERA. HOLOGRAPHY PROVIDES FOR BOTH ...

Heterdyne Interferometer for Triggering Gas Puff PRSs
SBC: HY-Tech Research Corp. Topic: N/ALarge X-ray generators using gas fill loads are a key element in the DTRA simulator program. Consistent relative timing between the injection of the gas shell and the generator current pulse is crucial to producing consistent, high-yield x-ray pulses.To that end HY-Tech proposes replacing existing high voltage trigger pin technology, with a sensitive, all fiber-optic heterodyne interferometer ba ...

NOVEL UNDERWATER SHOCK WAVE MEASUREMENT
SBC: KTECH CORP. Topic: N/ATHE PROPOSED EFFORT WILL DEVELOP AND APPLY A NEW EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH TO MEASURE UNDERWATER TIME RESOLVED SHOCK WAVE PROFILES RESULTING FROM UNDERWATER OR SURFACE DETONATIONS. EXPLICIT DATA REQUIRED TO DESCRIBE UNDERWATER SHOCK WAVE EFFECTS ON TARGETS WILL BE OBTAINED USING A RECENTLY DEVELOPED PIEZOELECTRIC POLYMER STRESS GAUGE. A UNIQUE EXPERIMENTAL CONFIGURATION IS PROPOSED, THAT WILL ALLOW SH ...
