- Description
- This announcement is only a Request for Information; it is not a solicitation. The Air Force Flight Test Center (AFFTC)/Test Pilot School (TPS), Edwards AFB, CA is seeking for potential sources capable of providing the following requirement: The TPS has a requirement for six or more personal instrumentation systems which will record pilot physiologic data during a high g and high altitude test flights scheduled in September 2011. The data monitored must be recorded on the pilot or transmitted from the pilot. It cannot be transferred by wire or cable from the pilot. The airborne system must be self contained and unobtrusive. It should have the following characteristics: 1. Record data at the maximum sample rate for 2-3 hours and/or transmit the entire data stream a minimum of 60 feet. 2. Weight less than 80 grams including battery. 3. Software configurable parameter calibration, timing, synchronization and sample rates, as well as, software to analyze and play back recorded data. The table below identifies the specific physiologic parameters we expect to monitor with this equipment. The column on the left is the priority of the measurement: Pri Sensor Special Conditions or Reqrmts Sample/Sec 1 Heart Rate Sensor not to be affected by g 25 loading or perspiration 1 Core Temp 25 1 O2 Saturation Small, flexible pinky finger sensor, 25 which will fit under pilots flying glove is preferred if sensor is attached to digit 1 Respiration Sensor not to be affected by g 50 Rate loading or perspiration 1 Dermal Temp Sensor not to be affected by g 50 loading or perspiration 2 O2 Partial Sensor not to be affected by g 100 Pressure in loading or perspiration Face Mask 2 O2 Partial Sensor not to be affected by g 100 Pressure in loading or perspiration Face Mask 2 Pressure in Sensor not to be affected by g 100 Face Mask loading or perspiration 2 Temp in Sensor not to be affected by g 100 Face Mask loading or perspiration 2 Expired Sensor not to be affectred by g 50 Flow Rate loading or perspiration 2 Galvanic Sensor not to be affected by g 50 Skin Response loading or perspiration The likely equipment candidates for this type of data gathering are concepts like the Equivital monitoring system.
