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. Compact Water Recovery for Fuel Cell Power Systems

    SBC: CREARE LLC            Topic: AF05142

    Compact, efficient, and sustainable generators are needed to provide mobile electric power for deployable military bases. Fuel cells with fuel processors that run on logistic fuel are attractive candidates due to their high efficiency. For good sustainability, these systems need to be self-sufficient in water. We propose to develop a compact water recovery unit that will capture and recycle wat ...

  2. Flight Test Assistant

    SBC: CREARE LLC            Topic: AF05320

    The recent development of fully capable pocket size computers and miniature inertial sensors and GPS receivers has created a real opportunity for innovation in the conduct of flight tests. Creare’s Flight Test Assistant (FTA) takes full advantage of these new technologies to address issues of instrumentation cost, test productivity, and data quality. Our FTA combines off-the-shelf sensors with ...

  3. Bone-conducted Sound Transmission and Attenuation

    SBC: CREARE LLC            Topic: AF06T035

    Hearing protection for personnel working in high-noise environments remains an important challenge for the scientific and engineering community. The sound levels close to certain modern military weapons platforms approach 150 dBA. At these levels, the attenuation provided by hearing protection devices (HPDs) is limited by bone-conducted sound that bypasses the ear canal and its associated protect ...

  4. Advanced Aircrew Personnel Lowering Device

    SBC: CREARE LLC            Topic: AF06020

    This proposal addresses the need for a modern aircrew personnel lowering device (PLD) to help parachutists extricate themselves from trees. The existing PLD design is over three decades old and is large and cumbersome. A more compact and streamlined device is desired as a future replacement. Creare proposes to develop a new PLD that uses a small, high-strength cord, a friction device that opera ...

  5. Automated Dielectric Model Generation

    SBC: CREARE LLC            Topic: AF06034

    Dosimetry studies require detailed knowledge of tissue dielectric properties. Previous studies have relied on slice-by-slice segmentation of organs from magnetic resonance images; a time-consuming process that limits application of the method to a wider variety of anatomic data sets. We propose to overcome this problem using a novel method of determining dielectric properties on a voxel-by-voxel ...

  6. An Advanced Machining System for the Improved Manufacture of Aerospace Materials

    SBC: CREARE LLC            Topic: AF06103

    Advanced propulsion systems for the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) aircraft require the use of advanced materials for longer life, reduced weight, and increased performance. Ceramic matrix composite (CMC) materials have the potential to realize these benefits; however, the high cost of finished CMC components make wide implementation impractical. To reduce these costs, new, innovative fabrication te ...

  7. In-Line Air Sensor for Hydraulic Fluid

    SBC: CREARE LLC            Topic: AF06107

    Air in aircraft hydraulic systems can cause cavitation, higher oil operating temperatures, oxidation, noisy operation, vibration, and changes in system natural frequency. To address this problem, the Air Force has developed purification systems to remove both free and dissolved air. The problem is that there is currently no sensor available for controlling the cart that can detect and quantify t ...

  8. Reactor Network Modeling of Augmentors

    SBC: CREARE LLC            Topic: AF06177

    Augmentor stability is critical to the operational performance of numerous military systems. Current predictive tools for augmentor performance and stability are based on decades-old empirical correlations that do not provide reliable estimates for advanced augmentor designs. Recent advances in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and advanced combustion diagnostics have provided new insight into ...

  9. Affordable Large-Format Mid-Infrared (IR) Imagers Using Large Metamorphic InSb-on-GaAs Wafers

    SBC: QMAGIQ LLC            Topic: AF06212

    We propose epitaxial InSb grown on large metamorphic GaAs substrates as a platform to enable large affordable mid-infrared focal plane arrays (FPAs). In Phase 1, we will design and grow a number of metamorphic buffers to accommodate the lattice mismatch between InSb and GaAs. Their quality will be evaluated in actual focal plane arrays that we will fabricate and test. Phase 1 will experimentall ...

  10. Methodologies for Integration of Prognostic Health Management Systems with Maintenance Data

    SBC: QUALTECH SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: AF06099

    Prognostic techniques are intricately tied to the physics of incipient-fault-to-failure progression, and hence most prognostics research has focused on developing techniques for a range of components such as rotating machinery parts. The research and development of such techniques has relied on the theories of material science, structural mechanics, domain expertise, as well as empirical studies s ...
