- Description
- SUMMARY: This is a Sources Sought notice and not a request for quotes. This request is solely for the purpose of conducting market research to enhance VHA s understanding of the market s offered products, services and capabilities. The Government will not pay any costs for responses submitted in response to this Sources Sought. This Sources Sought notice provides an opportunity for respondents to submit their notice of ability, and their available products and services in response to the requirement described below. Vendors are being invited to submit information relative to their potential of fulfilling the requirement below, in the form of a capability response that addresses the specific requirement identified in this Sources Sought. The Veterans Health Administration (VHA) is seeking a vendor to provide the following products and/or services below. Please see the General Requirements section below for the requested products/services and descriptions. This Sources Sought is to facilitate the Contracting Officer s review of the market base, for acquisition planning, size determination, and procurement strategy. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS The Malcom Randall VA Medical Center requires brand name equipment for the Vicon Vantage+ V5 Camera. Vicon Motion Systems is the sole manufacturer of the Vicon Vantage+ V5 Camera. Only cameras made by Vicon Motion Systems, Inc. are compatible with the existing hardware and software (also made by Vicon) in the Human Motor Performance Lab. Cameras from any other manufacturer would not work with the system. REQUIRED TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS: Component Specification Performance: Maximum frame rate (fps) at full resolution 420 1 Maximum frame rate (fps) at partial scan 2,000 1 Frame rates (fps) 30 2,000 Sensor: Sensor type CMOS Sensor resolution (pixels) 2432 H x 2048 V Number of pixels 4,980,736 Pixel size 4.5 microns x 4.5 microns Physical sensor size (mm) 10.94 mm (H) x 9.22 mm (V), 14.31 mm (Diagonal) Optical format 2/3"" and 1"" Shutter type Global shutter 2 Aspect ratio 1:1 On camera processing: 256 shades and grayscale processing Yes 3 Grayscale depth 8-bit Sub pixel resolution 1,048,576 x 1,048,576 (1/256 pixel resolution) On-board processors 3 processors On-camera masking Yes 4 In-camera dynamic large blob eliminator Yes 5 Software masking Yes Auto masking Yes On-camera thresholding Yes Threshold grid size (tiles) 152 x 128 Threshold grid tile dimensions (pixels) 16 x 16 Camera output modes 5 6 Full frame preview output Yes 7 Strobe/Ringlight: Types available 850 nm (Infrared (IR)) Number of LEDs 22 Cover type available Secondary optics (standard factory fit) Strobe electronics Integrated, software reprogrammable and controlled Adjustable illumination Yes Adjustable levels 1,000 (software controlled) View angle (Set by secondary optics) 56° or 70° Physical: Camera housing Complex mold custom die-cast aluminum Camera body dimensions 166.2 mm (H) x 125 mm (W) x 134.1 mm (D) Weight (including strobe, excluding lens) 1.6 kg Number of mount points 2 Camera mount fixing bracket Optional Camera architecture: Software and firmware upgradable Yes Upgrade methods Through the Vicon application software. Firmware files can be placed on the Vicon Vantage host PC using any standard transmission method (e.g. FTP, e-mail, CD, USB stick). The files are then uploaded from the Vicon Vantage host PC to the Vantage system hardware through the Reprogram Firmware option in the software. Connector A single RJ-45 connector to the PoE+ switch. Cabling Cat5e (Gigabit Ethernet with power and sync over Ethernet) Power supply 48V, 24 Watts max Conforms to IEEE 802.3at-2009 (25.5W) standard. Maximum number of cameras supported per PoE+ switch Switch-dependent (see Understand when additional PoE+ switches are required) Lens type supported Ricoh Pentax 12.5 mm and 8.5 mm focal length. Plug and play compatibility Yes Mixed camera system compatibility Interoperable with all Vero, Vue, Bonita Optical and Video and all MX T-Series cameras System connectivity/ communication Gigabit Ethernet Communication status indicators Yes Camera number indicator / information display Yes Camera status indicators On camera and strobe unit and in software Knock detection indicator Yes Tap for Select notification Yes IP addressable Yes IP reconfigurable Yes Cooling Advanced thermal design Operating temperature: Maximum temperature 35°C 8 Minimum temperature -5°C 8 Environmental regulations: RoHS compliant Yes V5 specification table notes Increased frame rates: Selecting a frame rate greater than full resolution automatically reduces image size by windowing. This keeps the pixel rate the same by transmitting a greater number of smaller images per second. You specify the capture frame rate of the Vantage cameras in the Vicon application software. Vantage cameras are capable of capturing up to a maximum of 2,000 fps, but the actual frame rate you can specify depends on the Vicon application software you are using. For details, see your Vicon software documentation. Above 120 fps the amount of light emitted per frame is linearly reduced. The light emitted per frame at 240 fps is half that output per frame at 120 fps. (The total strobe light output remains the same). With Vantage+ firmware, instead of (or in addition to) windowing, you can use high-speed mode, which uses subsampling to increase the frame rate without reducing the field of view, but with some reduction in resolution. For details, see High-speed mode and your Vicon software documentation. Shuttering: The global shutter overcomes the negative effects of using rolling shutters for motion capture. Full marker grayscale: Marker centers are calculated based on every pixel of grayscale available for the marker, not just the detected marker edges. An on-camera circularity test ensures merged or partially occluded markers which need high-level processing are sent in full grayscale to the Vicon Vantage host PC. On-camera masking: This removes areas of the sensor where undesirable static light sources are recorded, for example strobes from other cameras. Blob elimination: Camera firmware automatically removes undesirable image data including both large blobs (e.g. sunlight reflections) and/or an unusually large number of blobs. Output modes: Automatic (centers for circular markers, grayscale for overlapping/partially occluded markers), Centers Only, Grayscale Only, Centers/Grayscale, and Preview (the entire sensor image). Preview mode: The full image is lightly filtered, decimated and transmitted to the Vantage host at 30 fps. This reduces the quantity of preview video data to a level that can be transmitted over Gigabit Ethernet to the Vicon Vantage host PC. Only one camera at a time is allowed to be sent in Preview mode as it requires most of the system bandwidth to transmit this one signal. Operating temperature: While Vicon cameras may operate outside the given limits, these are the temperatures to which Vicon has tested the cameras. If the cameras are operated outside of these limits, image quality may be degraded, the external surface temperatures may exceed the relevant safety limits, and any failures are not covered under warranty. RESPONSE COMMITMENT I. Response: A. Capability statement and a list of the salient characteristics. Please provide your socioeconomic status, and size classification (large business, small business, SDVOSB, VOSB, etc.), and the approximate shipping time from the date of order. All responses should be directed to annmarie.stewart@va.gov by November 1, 2022, 11AM EST. B. Submittals furnished will not be returned to the sender. No debriefs will be conducted. Eligibility in participating in a future acquisition does not depend upon a response to this notice. C. Proprietary information is neither requested nor desired. If such information is submitted, it must clearly be marked ""proprietary"" on every sheet containing such information, and the proprietary information must be segregated to the maximum extent practicable from other portions of the response (e.g., use an attachment or exhibit). II. Timeline: This notice will close on November 1, 2022, 11AM EST III. Delivery Address: U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Malcom Randall Veterans Affairs Medical Center 1601 S.W. Archer Road, Gainesville, FL 32608 Notes: 1. This Sources Sought is for planning purposes only, and does not constitute a commitment, implied or otherwise, that a procurement action will follow. The Department of Veterans Affairs will use the information submitted in response to this notice at its discretion and will not provide comments to any submission; however, The Department of Veterans Affairs reserves the right to contact any respondent to this notice for the sole purpose of enhancing The Department of Veteran Affairs understanding of the notice submission. 2.
