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. Vapor Compression Refrigeration System for Cold Storage on Spacecrafts

    SBC: Air Squared, Inc.            Topic: H3

    NASA is looking for solutions for its long-term or distance food storage and transport applications. Achieving high thermal efficiencies and reliability while maintaining volumetric and mass efficiency has been the key challenge with these kinds of refrigeration/freezing systems in a microgravity environment. Previous state of the art refrigerator/freezer systems such as the ISS RFR, use thermoele ...

  2. High Capacity Multi-Stage Scroll Compressor for Mars Atmosphere Acquisition

    SBC: Air Squared, Inc.            Topic: H1

    The proposed innovation supports technologies for In Situ Resource Utilization (ISRU) processes by collecting and pressurizing gasses from the Mars atmosphere for eventual oxygen production by use of Solid Oxide Electrolysis (SOXE). There are several ways to capture and pressurize CO2, including freezing at cryogenic temperatures, mechanical compression, and absorption. Completed studies on each a ...

  3. RSim: A Simulation Tool Integrating Radiation Codes and CAD.

    SBC: TECH-X CORPORATION            Topic: H11

    Tech-X will develop a standalone cross-platform application RSim. This application will have a Graphical User Interface (GUI) for performing common radiation transport simulations. Without the need to write code in C++ or Fortran and inputs for models, users of RSim will be able to set up the radiation environment, geometry and materials of the analyzed system, choose the analysis type (tallies) ...

  4. Highly Efficient Closed-Loop CO2 Removal System for Deep-Space ECLSS

    SBC: TDA RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: T6

    TDA Research Inc.(TDA) in collaboration with University of Puerto Rico – Mayaguez (UPRM is proposing to develop a highly efficient CO2 removal system based on UPRM proprietary strontium exchanged silico-alumino-phosphate (Sr-SAPO-34) sorbent for closed loop space craft cabin air re-vitalization during deep space missions. In the Phase I work, we successfully completed bench-scale proof-of-concep ...

  5. Launch Weather Decision Support System

    SBC: Radiometrics Corporation            Topic: T1

    NASA wants a cost-effective atmospheric remote sensing system providing accurate temperature and humidity profiles to least 10 km height in clear and cloudy conditions. Radiometrics Microwave Profiler (MP) products currently provide accurate temperature and humidity profiles in good agreement with radiosondes to 3 km height. Good agreement can be extended beyond 10 km height using variational retr ...

  7. Low Pressure Drop Oxygen Flow Meter for the PLSS

    SBC: SPACE LAB TECHNOLOGIES, LLC            Topic: H4

    The portable life support system (PLSS) of the advanced extravehicular mobility unit (AEMU) provides the necessary environment for a crew member to operate within the space suit. Within the PLSS, the oxygen ventilation loop provides carbon dioxide washout, gas temperature control, humidity control, and trace contaminant removal. Historically, there have been issues with the measurement of air fl ...

  8. Pro-WASH- Produce Wash and Aeration for Space Habitats

    SBC: SPACE LAB TECHNOLOGIES, LLC            Topic: H12

    Initial space food crops will be “pick-and-eat”, requiring produce disinfection on board spacecraft. The state of the art disinfection method on the ISS is Pro-San® wipes developed by Microcide, Inc. This method is not regenerable, requiring resupply mass, creating solid waste, and requiring crew time to manually clean vegetables. Also, wipes cannot easily disinfect produce with a lot of c ...

  9. uG-LilyPond- Floating Plant Pond for Microgravity

    SBC: SPACE LAB TECHNOLOGIES, LLC            Topic: T7

    Regenerative space life support will undoubtedly require food production, to recover nutrients and close the carbon loop in a spacecraft habitat. Aquatic plants have enormous potential for edible biomass production but have been little studied as potential food crops for space applications. The proposed μG-LilyPond™ is an autonomous environmentally controlled floating plant cultivation system ...

  10. EXPERT SYSTEM FOR FINITE ELEMENT MODELING

    SBC: Autodesk Inc.            Topic: N/A

    MOST TYPICAL PROBLEMS IN STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING ARE BEST ANALYZED BY APPROXIMATING AN OBJECT'S GEOMETRY WITH FINITE ELEMENTS. SELECTING AN APPROPRIATE MESHING STRATEGY FOR A GIVEN SOLID REQUIRES KNOWLEDGE ABOUT FINITE ELEMENT THEORY IN GENERAL, AND ABOUT PACKAGE-SPECIFIC DETAILS IN PARTICULAR. THE ADEPT SYSTEM INTEGRATES A TRADITIONAL SOLIDMODELER WITH AN EXPERT SYSTEM EQUIPPED WITH THIS KNOWLEDGE ...
