- Description
- Sources Sought Robotic Arm System This Sources Sought is a request for information only, and is not a solicitation for offers. VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System/HERL is seeking sources for a robotic arm (manipulator). The requested Brand Name Kinova, JACO 6 DOF No Gripper Robotic Arm System and accessories, or Equal will be used for collaborative research as a testing apparatus. A JACO is a light-weight (5.2kg) manipulator composed of six inter-linked carbon fiber segments and a three fingered hand. It is typically mounted to the side of a powered wheelchair seat frame allowing it to follow the tilt movement of the seat. The intended use is to identify a list of functional tasks and a set of commercial / custom adapters that allow a JACO arm to assist the completion of these tasks, investigate the validity of a validated assessment tool (ARMET), and determine the effectiveness of a JACO arm in real-world use and examine its potential benefits. Please respond via email to Cheryl.purpura@va.gov by 4:00pm, 12/20/2016 if you are an authorized distributor and source for a robotic arm with accessories that can assist veterans who use powered mobility devices who experience functional limitations in reaching and handling that are basic activities of daily living. Provide sufficient information in your response concerning the product and the contractor s capabilities.
