- Description
- NA The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carderock Division (NSWCCD) intends to procure a video recording and three-dimensional analysis system to capture and analyze the motion of a variety of marine test articles in surface and underwater environments. This requirement is a 100% small business set-aside and will be awarded as a firm fixed price contract utilizing FAR Subpart 13.5, Test Program for Certain Commercial Items. Both full-scale and model-scale test articles are used as targets. Examples of dynamics and parameters to be analyzed include position, pitch, roll, yaw, speed, acceleration, displacement, cavitation, volume, reaction to explosive events and correlation between momentary cavitation events and acoustic events. Based on the limit of the system's recording capacity, it must be able to operate over a range of speeds (frames/second) and time periods. Three (3) colo r imagers will typically be used.The imagers must be able to be remotely controlled so that the operator can make adjustments to frame rates, aperture, shutter speeds, triggering method, and so forth, and have "through the lens" viewing capability, all from the remote workstation. Once the imagers have been positioned and connected, they must be locked together for a global trigger signal and synchronized recording of the event. NSWCCD requires 2 seconds of record time at the highest frame rate of 1,000 frames/second. The frame rate must be proportionally adjustable (lower) thereby providing increased recording time. Due to the size of the objects being tested and some testing being performed underwater, a high-resolution camera sensor with adequate light sensitivity will be critical. Due to the nature of testing, the imagers must be capable of retaining those images in the camera's memory until they are remotely downloaded to the workstation or other storage device subsequent to the test. The imagers can be located a maximum of 100 feet from each other so Ethernet or similar industry standard communication technology is required. Upon completion of a test, the operator must be able to rapidly download the imagers and secure the data on the workstation's RAID. Due to typically short intervals between tests, the system must completely download the three imagers and secure the data within 30 minutes.Saved images must be available for review and edit. This includes playback, fast forward and reverse, freeze frame, advance by frame (forward or reverse), and a zoom window feature. Image sequences must be able to be edited for length (deletion of frames). Additional digital image filters such as brightness, contrast, edge enhancement, etc. are be neficial. The workstation shall contain 2D and 3D motion analysis software, which will allow the operator to select points of interest in the imagery and generate time/position plots on a 2D or 3D coordinate system. Point types should include positive and negative contrast points, quadrant target fiducials and the ability for the operator to select and create custom point templates. The software will automatically locate the centroid of the selected point or match the custom template. The software will be able to auto-track these points throughout the image sequence and possess sub-pixel resolution properties. The motion analysis software will have the ability to import external sensor I/O data. The operator may select single or multiple channels of sensor data, create sensor data plots and synchronize the resultant plots with the imagery. The 3D software will have an inte rface, which will prompt the user through the necessary steps to successfully complete 3D geometry calibration and lens correction. 3D plots will appear in a Cartesian "world view" format such that the operator can select the orientation of the coordinate system. All plots must be able to be displayed in graphical and tabular format and be exportable in an industry-standard format to other third party programs for additional analysis. The software must be able to create an electronic version of the test results and be able to write that to compact disk (CD) so that the recipient can play the imagery and view the test results on any industry standard PC. The workstation must have adequate processing and storage capability to be able to store at least 10 complete and uncompressed tests. The RFQ for this announcement will be issued on or about Oct 22,2002. To receive a copy of the RFQ please submit your request to Hugh Harrison by email harrisonhl@nswccd.navy.mil, or by fax to 301-227-1847, NOT LATER THAN Oct 22, 2002. (See note #1)
