- This is a Phase 2 Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Honeybee Robotics, Ltd. for the development of a high-temperature (HT) rotary-percussive drill and pneumatic sample delivery system for use in Venus exploration. The $1,032,848 firm-fixed-price contract builds on prior SBIR work by Honeybee Robotics, which found that a HT trencher and blower-based pneumatic system were not feasible or carried high...
- This contract award to Honeybee Robotics, Ltd. is for the development of a robotic sampling system suitable for future Venus or comet surface exploration missions. The award, valued at $124,164, is from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) under the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program. The work will leverage Honeybee Robotics' prior component-level development of extreme temperature motors, sensors, brakes, and gearboxes to integrate these into a complete...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $499,978.00 firm-fixed-price contract to Honeybee Robotics, Ltd., a small business subchapter S corporation, for the development of a Pneumatic Sampler (P-Sampler) to support the Martian Moons Exploration (MMX) mission. This contract was issued under NASA's Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program Phase III. Honeybee Robotics, a subsidiary of Ensign-Bickford Industries, Inc., has a history of providing drilling...
- This is a $120,048.00 fixed-price Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I contract awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Honeybee Robotics, Ltd. doing business as Honeybee Robotics Craft Mechanisms. The contract requires Honeybee Robotics to miniaturize a heritage spaceflight motor controller using system-in-package technology to create a smaller, universal solution for controlling brushless DC, permanent magnet synchronous, and microstepping motors...
- Honeybee Robotics LLC, a Longmont, Colorado-based subsidiary of Ensign-Bickford Industries, received a $345,102 Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase III definitive contract from NASA's Shared Services Center on March 8, 2023. This firm fixed-price award, with completion targeted for September 1, 2025, supports development of a pneumatic excavation mechanism designed for lunar resource utilization. As a Phase III SBIR contract, this award represents commercialization and scalability...
- This is a Firm Fixed Price Small Business SBIR Phase I contract awarded by NASA to Honeybee Robotics, Ltd. in the amount of $124,325.00. The goal of the contract is to perform breadboarding and testing of promising hermetic sealing techniques, as well as conduct a system-level study to determine implementation challenges for sample return missions. The tests will be conducted on both clean and "dirty" seals. The results of the Phase I contract will be one or more options for hermetic...
- Honeybee Robotics LLC, a subsidiary of Ensign-Bickford Industries, has been awarded a $5.8 million definitive contract by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to develop a pneumatic excavation mechanism for lunar resource utilization. The firm fixed price contract was awarded under Phase III of the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program and will be performed in Brooklyn, New York over a 30-month period ending in November 2022. The mechanism is intended to support...
- This is a $124,877 Phase I Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) contract awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Honeybee Robotics, Ltd. to develop a robotic system for building landing pads on planetary bodies like the Moon and Mars.
