Aron Krischel Contracting Officer for National Institute of Technology 325 Broadway Boulder, CO 80305 REQUIREMENTS DOCUMENT TITLE:� High Speed Optical Camera Tracking System LAB REQUESTING ITEM(S):� Communications Technology Laboratory, Public Safety Communications Research (PSCR) BACKGROUND INFORMATION NIST PSCR has a requirement for a high speed optical camera tracking system with the capability to provide tracking for a mixed reality environment using a variety of augmented and virtual reality headsets. The systems will need to be installed in two separate facilities � a warehouse space and a smaller lab location. PSCR is researching the use of virtual and augmented reality for developing, testing, and training on future user interfaces. The lab has developed a variety of virtual environments and scenarios that mimic high risk first responder events using the Unreal Engine. This testbed can be leveraged by developers and researchers for evaluating new technologies for fire fighters, emergency medical services, and law enforcement. A large physical space with tracking will allow for greater immersion of the users by mirroring physical interactions and cognitive load. SCOPE The Contractor shall design, deliver, and install a high speed optical camera tracking system for use in a large warehouse environment and a small lab space. The warehouse environment will support a 35� x 40� demo area and require tracking around perimeter and cross the center in a grid layout. The lab space will be a smaller scale deployment used for research and development. This system�s software and networking will run on a Dell server and Juniper/Cisco hardware to be provided by PSCR. The Contractor must use the OptiTrack hardware and software as it is the only system identified that supports the Unreal Engine. The Contractor shall install all software and hardware at the FirstNet Authority and PSCR laboratories in Boulder, Colorado. The Contractor must provide additional equipment to support the space including virtual and augmented reality headsets, backpack VR computers, rubber floors for play space, and modular walls for configuring various layouts. 2. SPECIFICATIONS The Contractor shall deliver two (2) high speed optical tracking camera systems which will enable large scale mixed reality and motion capture. The contractor�s solution shall be consistent with the following specifications: Warehouse High Speed Optical Camera Tracking System: Shall provide active and passive tracking camera system capable of supporting multiple users in a multi-room layout using a 35� x 40� space. � � � �2. Shall be designed for use at 16� using a suspension from warehouse ceiling. � � � �3. Shall provide camera mounting hardware for the system. Lab High Speed Optical Camera Tracking System: Shall provide active and passive tracking cameras to support multiple users in a 10� x 10� space. Shall provide equipment for suspending cameras from a drop tile ceiling. General features: Shall support virtual reality headsets (i.e., Index) through active tracking. Provide active trackers and faceplate adaptors for Index headsets Shall provide active tracking pucks, base station transmitters, tag kits, and addition accessories for configuration tracking devices. Shall provide mocap tracking suits size Small, Medium, Large and XL, mocap gloves size S/M and L/XL, and mocap feet trackers size Small, Medium, and Large. Shall provide tracking markers for use with the mocap suits, gloves, and footwear as well as support for additional assets. Shall provide installation and configuration of system and onsite training for both locations. Shall provide network cables for the system for both locations. Shall provide active calibration systems for both locations. Shall provide perpetual licensing and software for both locations. Shall provide an equipment rack for one location. Shall provide support for NIST provided network equipment (i.e., Juniper switches, PoE injectors). Shall provide thick rubber flooring mats that will cover the 35� x 40� space. Rubber surfaces should be non-reflective to reduce potential interference with tracking system. Shall provide 10 modular walls that are at least 5� but less than 8� tall and at least 5� wide but less than 8� wide. Walls should be resistant to tipping over and easily movable by caster wheels, pallet jack, or other means. Wall surfaces should be non-reflective to reduce potential interference with tracking system. Shall provide Valve Index, Varjo, and Microsoft Hololens or ThirdEye XR-2 virtual and augmented reality headsets. Shall provide backpack computer systems for running virtual reality headsets. Shall provide a cleaning solution for sanitizing headsets and accessories.�� 3.�DELIVERY Final system installation and configuration to support all specifications shall be delivered for acceptance no later than one hundred and eighty (180) days after receipt of order (ARO). Contractor should coordinate with site to ensure warehouse is ready for installation of cameras. A 35� x 40� single pipe grid truss is being installed at this location. The current estimate for completion of truss install is 1st quarter of 2021. The small lab install at the NIST facility can occur any time after award. Prior to delivery, please notify the following personnel: Warehouse installation and all equipment for delivery is: Sam Gomez First Responder Network Authority?? 3122 Sterling Circle, Suite 100 Boulder, CO 80301 Small Lab installation is: Scott Ledgerwood NIST 325 Broadway Boulder, CO 80305 Site access must be coordinated at least 1 week in advance of delivery. The system components will be delivered as shown in Section VII, Deliverables, below. 4. PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENT Through inspection and basic tests, PSCR personnel will verify that the system performs as expected prior to acceptance and final payment. 5. WARRANTY/MAINTENANCE The Contractor shall provide a standard manufacture commercial warranty on all components. 6. GENERAL INFORMATION Media Inquiries:� The Contractor employee shall not respond to any media inquiries.� Any inquiries from the media shall be immediately relayed to the TPOC, COR, and/or CO.� There shall be no interviews, comments, or any other response without the knowledge and approval of the NIST Director. NIST Business Hours:� Normal business is conducted between 8:30am and 5:00pm MST, Monday through Friday except Federal Holidays. See attached for a complete list of required equipment.
