About this award
Opterro, Inc., a small business, has been awarded a $174.5K Phase I Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract by a civilian federal agency to develop a robust, highly-multiplexed fiber optic sensor array for cryogenic fluid management. The firm fixed price contract was awarded on September 29, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of April 27, 2026. Work will be performed at the contractor's facility in San Jose, California. This SBIR Phase I award is designated as a total small business set-aside, supporting the government's commitment to fostering innovation through small business research and development initiatives.
The fiber optic sensor technology under development addresses the need for advanced monitoring solutions in cryogenic fluid systems, which are critical for aerospace, scientific research, and other applications requiring extreme temperature management. Opterro's solution leverages multiplexed fiber optic sensing to enable simultaneous monitoring of multiple parameters across cryogenic systems, potentially improving operational efficiency and safety. The Phase I contract will focus on proving the technical feasibility and commercial viability of this sensor array approach, with successful completion potentially leading to Phase II development and commercialization opportunities.
