To date, MagneSensors has received both Federal and private funding. We have received a total of 30 contracts, grants, and subcontracts over the past 12 years.
We have been the prime contractor on 14 contracts and grants from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), NASA, Department of Defense (Navy), and the National Science Foundation (NSF), including four Phase II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) awards.
We have received subcontracts from IBM for our magnetic sensors that were funded by the Navy. We have received subcontracts from Quantum Magnetics (now part of GE Security) that were funded by FAA, DARPA, NASA, and the Navy. We also received two sizable research and development contracts from Shimadzu Corporation.
