- Description
- : Proposals are sought from small business firms for participation in the NIST Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program. The SBIR Program is a three-phase program which implements Public Law 102-564, the "Small Business Research and Development Enhancement Act of 1992." The purpose of Phase 1 is to conduct feasibility related experimental or theoretical research or research and development (R&D) in order to determine the scientific or technical merit/feasibility of concepts/ideas as prerequisite to further NIST support under Phase 2 of the SBIR Program. Individuals receiving awards under Phase 1 will be eligible to compete for Phase 2 contracts. Phase 1 awards will be made up to $75,000.00. The following are the research topics available for Phase 1: 1.Distributed Multi-Nodal Voice/Data Communication For Fire Fighters; 2. Enhanced Fire Fighter Visibility; 3. Sensing For Advanced Warning Of Structural Collapse; 4. Advanced Building Information Systems; 5. Ultra-High Resolution Capacitance Bridge; 6. Ultra Low Energy Sputter Ion Beam System For Depth Profiling; 7. Low-Energy Ion Gun For Polyolefin Mass Spectrometry; 8. Software Development On High Speed Impact Of Multi-Layered Materials; 9.
