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. Long-Range Compact Economical Lidar for Wind Profiling

    SBC: BEYOND PHOTONICS, LLC            Topic: A3

    Wind events, turbulence, wind shear, etc., are continuing to cause accidents and fatalities for aviation. As NASA strives to bring aviation services to more location, including urban locations, and increasingly relies on autonomous operation, the requirement to mitigate incidents caused by winds is imperative. To this end we propose a high-performance long-range wind profiling coherent-detection l ...

  2. A Framework for Failure Management and Recovery for Remote Autonomous Task Planning and Execution

    SBC: PICKNIK INC.            Topic: Z5

    Advanced robotic systems capable of near-human level autonomy will be required for NASA to maintain critical, human-rated spaceflight hardware in cislunar space and beyond. Occasionally, these systems may experience task planning failures, or detectable faults while executing a planned procedure to accomplish a necessary task such as transferring cargo or engaging levers. In order for a ground ope ...

  3. Task and Motion Planning for Space Operations, with Human-Assisted Recovery

    SBC: PICKNIK INC.            Topic: Z5

    Space operations have been increasingly turning to Persistent Assets; systems that require repeated visits and/or regular maintenance over extended periods of time. To make such operations achievable from a cost perspective and dependence on human crews, relying on autonomous vehicles and robots is a common solution. However, deploying successful systems long-running space operations requires a co ...

  4. An Affordance Driven, Human-in-the-Loop Perception Framework

    SBC: PICKNIK INC.            Topic: Z5

    Despite continued advances in robotics, it has been difficult to deploy robots for non-trivial tasks in unstructured environments in a fully autonomous way. As a result, for such tasks there is often a human in the loop to create supervised autonomy. We are proposing to develop a flexible software-based solution that enables operators to easily command robots by leveraging more computer vision. Th ...

  5. HPDM-30 – A 10 kW/kg Integrated Motor Drive for UAV and Aircraft Electric Propulsion

    SBC: H3X TECHNOLOGIES INC.            Topic: 3HybEl

    The HPDM-30 is a ultra high power density 30kW integrated motor drive for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and Small Aircraft Electric Propulsion. It combines the motor and inverter into a single unit and utilizes the same advanced core technology developed for H3X's flagship product, the HPDM-250. H3X is targeting a combined motor/inverter efficiency of 93% and a continuous specific power of 10 kW/k ...

  6. Reusable Heat Shields Through Additive Manufacturing (RHAM)

    SBC: CANOPY AEROSPACE, INC.            Topic: 2LEO

    NASA has a stated strategic goal to promote a commercial presence in LEO, as formalized in their Commercial LEO Destinations (CLDs) program. Given the emphasis on transitioning to CLDs, highly available thermal protection system (TPS) manufacturing has become an even more critical capability. Unfortunately, reusable TPS materials such Alumina-Enhanced Thermal Barrier (AETB or “Shuttle Tile”) d ...

  7. HPDM-30 – A 10 kW/kg Integrated Motor Drive for UAV and Aircraft Electric Propulsion

    SBC: H3X TECHNOLOGIES INC.            Topic: 3HybEl

    The HPDM-30 is a ultra high power density 30kW integrated motor drive (IMD) for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and Small Aircraft Electric Propulsion. It combines the motor and inverter into a single unit and utilizes the same advanced core technology developed for H3X's flagship product, the HPDM-250. H3X is targeting a combined motor/inverter efficiency of 93% and a continuous specific power of 1 ...

  8. On-Orbit Solution Recycling Methods to Improve Scale of Layer-by-Layer Artificial Retina Manufacturing

    SBC: LAMBDAVISION INCORPORATED            Topic: H8

    LambdaVision has developed a protein-based artificial retina to restore vision to the millions of people blinded by retinal degenerative diseases, including retinitis pigmentosa and age-related macular degeneration. The artificial retina thin films are manufactured using a layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly technique, in which alternating layers of the light-activated protein, bacteriorhodopsin, and a ...

  9. Feasibility study for an automated Machine Learning analytics platform for better process control of artificial retina in-space manufacturing

    SBC: LAMBDAVISION INCORPORATED            Topic: H8

    LambdaVision is developing an artificial retina to restore vision to the millions of people blinded by retinal degenerative diseases. The artificial retina is manufactured using a layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly technique, which results in an artificial retina thin film that contains hundreds of oriented layers of the light-activated protein, bacteriorhodopsin.nbsp;nbsp;The LBL process is subject to ...
