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. Computational Methods for Dynamic Scene Reconstruction

    SBC: Systems & Technology Research LLC            Topic: N16AT017

    The ubiquity of high-resolution imagery and video taken by surveillance cameras, handheld cameras, vehicle-mounted cameras, and airborne cameras is creating a rich source of dynamic data that offers opportunities for effectively solving defense, security and law enforcement problems. But in order to develop effective scene and activity understanding applications we must develop robust, accurate an ...

  2. 3D Acoustic Model for Geometrically Constrained Environments

    SBC: HEAT, LIGHT, AND SOUND RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: N16AT018

    Systems that operate in constrained environments depend on the acoustics in several ways. Harbor defense systems detect intruders (people and/or vessels) by either listening for their noises (passively) or by pinging on them and detecting their echoes (actively). Furthermore, such systems may also form the equivalent of an underwater cell phone network using sound to carry the information. The aco ...

  3. 3D Acoustic Model for Geometrically Constrained Environments

    SBC: SOFAR Acoustics, LLC            Topic: N16AT018

    This effort is focused on establishing an important capability of providing a comprehensive, advanced model of the three-dimensional acoustic field, including propagation, scattering, and reverberation in complex and dynamic environments. This new 3D acoustic model would feed the Navys sonar performance estimation tool with a purpose of addressing the optimal placement of sensors in complicated en ...

  4. Thermal Barrier Coatings for Long Life in Marine Gas Turbine Engines

    SBC: Directed Vapor Technologies International, Inc.            Topic: N16AT019

    The marine environment is extremely corrosive to turbine engine components due to the large amount of salts from the sea coupled with the fuel impurities and the high temperatures experienced. To cope with future operational requirements, a strong need exists to develop novel, protective coatings to provide environmental protection from hot corrosion and oxidation conditions across a wide range of ...

  5. SCOUT: Smart Communication Of Unexpected Threats

    SBC: Commonwealth Computer Research Inc            Topic: N16AT020

    The Navy needs to fuse and distill time-stamped data sources as varied as overhead imagery and Twitter feeds into actionable intelligence such as alerts, on-demand reports about entities of interest, and search capabilities. In order to enable such analytics, it is effective to learn fixed dimensional vectors (embeddings) representing the entities present in these heterogeneous data sources, which ...

  6. Embedded Space Analytics

    SBC: INFOBEYOND TECHNOLOGY LLC            Topic: N16AT020

    Navy needs a real-time graph embedding tool for analyzing huge graphs (millions of nodes and billions of edges) from diverse sources. However, current approaches cannot provide dynamic and scalable graph analytics to show the military value of tactical data. In this project, InfoBeyond advocates EStreaming (Embedding & Streaming) for scalable and efficient graph streaming. EStreaming promotes big ...

  8. Aerial Aquatic Ordnance Removal Vehicle (AEQUOR-V)

    SBC: AURORA FLIGHT SCIENCES CORPORATION            Topic: N16AT025

    With Project AEQUOR-V Aurora, in partnership with Purdue University, proposes to complete the conceptual design of a hybrid unmanned air/underwater vehicle (HUA/UV) capable of transitioning repeatedly between aerial and underwater operations in a single mission, operating in water depths up to 40 ft, and carrying a significant payload. To accomplish this goal, Aurora will build on design experienc ...

  9. Hybrid Unmanned Air / Underwater Vehicle for Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) and Mine Countermeasures (MCM)

    SBC: GREENSIGHT INC.            Topic: N16AT025

    A particularly challenging task for the US Navy today is that of Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) of underwater mines; the Mine Countermeasures (MCM) mission. The semi-submersible Remote Multi-Mission Vehicle (RMMV) has emerged as an unmanned solution to handle MCM missions. While the RMMV is groundbreaking, the basis of the technology is a relatively slow-moving watercraft.GreenSight Agronomics, ...

  10. Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Equipped for Air and Sea Locomotion

    SBC: BARRON ASSOCIATES, INC.            Topic: N16AT025

    The Navy seeks to develop a hybrid air/underwater autonomous vehicle that can rapidly inspect and/or engage submerged objects spread over great distances by flying through the air between sequential underwater operations. Compared to a standard AUV, the flight capability will offer substantial operational advantage by reducing mission time. For comparison, an AUV like the Remus-100 has a maximum s ...
