About us
The Navy SBIR Transition Program (Navy STP) supports the successful transition of Navy SBIR/STTR-funded technologies into military acquisition programs, commercial markets, or both. Now in its 25th year, the Navy STP serves as a platform for connecting SBIR/STTR-funded technologies with warfighters, government acquisition and technical personnel, prime contractors, system integrators, and other potential partners and collaborators. This DoN SBIR Program initiative takes a holistic approach to assisting participating small businesses in transitioning their innovative technologies that address the specific needs of the U.S. Navy. Through business mentoring, one-on-one coaching, marketing strategy development, marketing material creation, networking events, and promotional activities, the program provides comprehensive support to help small businesses navigate the complex transition process. Funded by the DoN SBIR Program, all small businesses with active Navy-funded Phase II SBIR/STTR awards are eligible to participate in the program during the first or second year of their Phase II development and demonstration work. Navy STP participating small businesses achieve a 68 percent greater likelihood of transitioning their technology than those that do not participate.

@PacMar Technologies It’s Ground and Sea Platforms Week! PacMar Technologies is on a current Navy SBIR Phase II contract to provide innovative new technology to the warfighter! PacMar Technologies, Honolulu, HI: Title: Capture and Deploy Device using Inflatable Elements (CaDDIE); Topic Number N192-101. Overview: A new system to deploy and retrieve a UUV from a Patrol Boat (Mk VI) was developed and simulated. The Capture and Deploy Device using Inflatable Elements (CaDDIE) is a combination of inflatable drop-stitch technology, an aluminum chassis, and electric thrusters. The CaDDIE will successfully launch and recover UUV in a variety of sea states without the assistance of a manned CRRC. This effort involves the detailed design of the CaDDIE and the fabrication and testing of a full-scale demonstrator. The demonstrator will be tested in controlled conditions and later an open-ocean environment with a surrogate UUV.

@Micro Nano Technologies It’s Ground and Sea Platforms Week! Micro Nano Technologies is on a current Navy SBIR Phase II contract to provide innovative new technology to the warfighter! Micro Nano Technologies, Gainesville, FL: Title: Reversible Replenishment Air-Conditioning System; Topic Number N231-064. Overview: To improve efficiency and performance of Ship HVAC systems, an efficient, compact, heat-driven absorption-based HVAC technology involving efficient treatment of air conditioning latent load has been developed. The technology involves direct removal of moisture from air rather than condensing moisture on cooling coils. A working prototype of the system will be built, and its operation will be demonstrated to reduce shipboard HVAC power consumption at a variety of inlet air conditions. These efforts will demonstrate the functionality and performance of a compact, efficient absorption dehumidification and heating system optimized for operation shipboard operations.

@Physical Sciences, Inc. It’s Ground and Sea Platforms Week! Physical Sciences, Inc., is on a current Navy SBIR Phase II contract to provide innovative new technology to the warfighter! Physical Sciences, Inc., Andover, MA: Title: Compact Lidar for Environmental Sensing in Support of Electromagnetic Maneuver Warfare; Topic Number N161-054. Overview: The Shipborne Atmospheric Extinction Lidar (SAEL) is a compact lidar that provides range-resolved extinction measurements along a slant path and is intended to become test range instrumentation for High Energy Laser (HEL) weapon performance assessment. Data products include range-resolved aerosol backscatter and extinction coefficients at a wavelength of 1.05 m with spatial and temporal resolutions. SAEL can obtain scans of these products in azimuth and elevation to ranges of 10 km. This program will increase the value of SAEL by enhancing its capabilities to support a wider range of HEL system testing. Physical Sciences, Inc.

@Trex Enterprises Corporation It’s Ground and Sea Platforms Week! Trex Enterprises Corporation is on a current Navy SBIR Phase II contract to provide innovative new technology to the warfighter! Trex Enterprises Corporation, El Cajon, CA: Title: CNS for Long Range Unmanned Surface Vessels; Topic Number N222-089. Overview: Long-Range Unmanned Surface Vessels (LRUSV) are designed to operate for several days at long ranges. LRUSVs cannot always rely on GPS. Trex is developing a Celestial Navigation System (CNS). CNS provides high accuracy position updates to the onboard INS; drifts and biases of the INS and Schuller oscillation do not affect CNS position accuracy. The update rate is once every 5 minutes. CNS has a small topside volume 2 computer slots. In the Phase-II program, prototype optical, mechanical, electrical, and software designs will be developed. Celestial Navigation algorithms will be refined, real-time software will be developed, prototype software and hardware will be integrated.

Navy SBIR/STTR Transition Program (Navy STP) reposted this
Did you know that the Pentagon restructured Artificial Intelligence (AI) under Research and Engineering (R&E)? The Chief Digital and AI Office (CDAO) has been moved under the Pentagon’s R&E directorate in a major push to unify strategy and accelerate adoption of emerging tech. For Navy innovators and partners, that could mean a clearer path to bring artificial intelligence solutions from lab to mission, with fewer barriers and faster impact at sea.
