Hunt (619)553-4541 NCCOSC RDTE DIV seeks to identify companies that manufacture long range high resolution surveillance camera systems. The system shall operate in day, twilight, and night conditions in various marine environments. The cameras will be integrated with Navy-owned lenses. The day camera will work with a 4-inch, multi-focal length lens. The twilight and night camera shall work with a 12-inch, multi-focal length lens. The twilight and night system shall use image intensified cameras and active range gated technology, and shall provide the option of operating with or without the laser. CAMERAS -- Both the day and night cameras shall provide an RS-170 output video format. Each camera shall provide options for both manual control and auto functions. The day camera shall provide an output for auto-iris control of the lens. The night camera shall provide manual controls for depth of field and range. LASER -- The acceptable wavelength band for the laser to operate is 900 nanometers or greater. The laser shallhave manual controls for output power and pulsewidth. The projected footprint of the laser shall not overfill the field of view of the cameras by more than 15%, as measured at 1/E2 full divergence. NAVY LENSES -- Day: Davro Optical Systems, 100 mm entrance aperture, Maksutov Cassegrain, 6 discrete focal length positions (368 mm, 760 mm, 1090 mm, 1355 mm, 2030 mm, 3100 mm), image format = 16 mm diagonal, C-mount. Night: Davro Optical Systems, 305 mm entrance aperture, 2 focal length positions (500 mm, 2000 mm), image format = 16 mm diagonal, C-mount. SAFETY FEATURES -- A Proximity Sensor shall be provided to shut the laser off if an obscurant enters the field of projection of the laser within the range gating range. The laser shall have accompanying documentation certifying that the laser is eye-safe within a specified range (the nominal ocular hazard distance shall be specified). SURVEILLANCE RANGE -- day, 12 km; twilight, 8 km; night, 6 km. TARGET -- Read target letters 35 cm high or greater with a 50% or greater scene contrast and a target reflectivity of 70%. Interested parties should submit a description of qualifications with respect to the foregoing. Responses should be limited to 10 pages of written text. There is no page limit for brochures, publications, resumes and other attachments. Responses are required on or before 10/7/97.
