The Department of Defense, Naval Explosive Ordnance Disposal Technology Division, (NAVEODTECCHDIV) is requesting information for electronic hearing protection that amplifies weak sounds while simultaneously blocking out loud, harmful noises. Descriptive literature to include product data sheets, product quality, reliability, warranty, company points of contact and pricing information for state-of the-art commercial off the shelf (COTS) electronic hearing protection is requested. Desired system parameters: capable of reducing loud noises to below 75 dB, amplifies quiet sounds up to five times normal hearing levels, weighs around six ounces, and uses a readily-available commercial battery. The data collected from this market research effort will be used to understand commercial available items' ability to meet the projected needs and do not necessarily represent the minimum acceptable capabilities.
