| 摘要： | The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program is the primary vehicle through which the federal government funds research and development (R&D) projects at small technology companies. The SBIR Program in the Federal Highway Administration and other modal administrations within the Department of Transportation is a competitive contract award process with three phases. Phase I is the conduct of feasibility-related experimental or theoretical research. Phase II is the principal research or R&D effort. Phase III is conducted by the small business with either federal or non-federal funds to pursue commercial applications of the research funded in Phases I and II. In addition to developing products that the highway community can use, another objective of the SBIR Program is to provide to the private sector an opportunity to commercialize these products. One of the early SBIR projects developed a retroreflectometer that uses the principle of retroreflection and a scanning laser beam to measure the retroreflectivity of lane markings. Another project developed improved equipment for the consolidation of concrete pavements. Under SBIR, a system was developed that offers the means to instrument a bridge with either strain gauges or accelerometers to assess structural performance. Still another project developed an intelligent vehicle sensor using existing inductive loops. |
