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. Next Generation Inertial Reference Unit (NG-IRU)

    SBC: A-TECH CORPORATION            Topic: N/A

    The Air Force is pursuing aircraft and satellite-based high power laser systems to engage and destroy missiles at long ranges (hundreds to thousands of kilometers). A precision inertial reference unit (IRU) is critical to successful operation of longrange, high power laser systems for missile defense. The IRU enables the system to accurately point the payload telescope and attached tracking sens ...

  2. Enhanced MHD Effect Rate Gyro (EMERG)

    SBC: A-TECH CORPORATION            Topic: N/A

    There is a demand for enhanced performance gyros used in advanced inertial reference units (aIRUs) required in Space Based Laser systems and space based surveillance systems. The current high performance gyros are marginal in meeting the SBL aIRUperformance requirements and are very expensive. Applied Technology Associates (ATA) proposes to develop a breakthrough angular rate gyroscope that has ...

  5. Lock-In Focal Plane Array

    SBC: CF Technologies, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    The current focal plane array (FPA) technology cannot detect extremely weak image and spectral photon signals buried in strong background (Is / Ib < 10 -7 ~ 10 -4), the detection of which is, however, crucial for missile defense systems. The lock-inamplifier [1] has been playing major roles in the detection of extremely weak photon signals. However, it costs a few thousand dollars and works onl ...

  7. Novel and Cost Effective Rain Erosion Tests at Supersonic Speeds

    SBC: CONTINUUM DYNAMICS INC            Topic: N/A

    A novel, cost effective method to subject test materials to rain erosion at supersonic speeds is proposed. The facility supports the BMDO/MDA mission to develop, test and flight qualify launch vehicle components during boost phase through adverseenvironment conditions including rain. The proposed SUpersonic Rain Erosion (SURE) facility is very cost effective because it does not require moving th ...
