This acquisition will be processed under Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP). All responsible sources may submit an offer that will be considered by this agenThe NAICS Code for this solicitation is 333314 Small Business Size Standard 500. Statement of Objectives: Free standing eye tracker, Eye tracker glasses and associated system software and hardware for preclinical and clinical research in the treatment of cancer Background: The Center for Interventional Oncology (CIO) operates in the Clinical Center (CC), operating under the Department of Radiology and Imaging Sciences National Institutes of Health Bethesda, Md. The Center for Interventional Oncology collaborates with its sister institutes at the NIH by supporting the clinical care of their patients who are admitted to the Clinical Center. The Center for Interventional Oncology develops and performs cutting edge clinical research in the diagnosis and treatment of malignancies. Preclinical studies and eventually under IRB approved research studies to treat cancer, technology will be integrated and developed to analyze the coordination of eye movements during an invasive procedure or during multiparametric image analysis. It is hoped that this will 1) increase the utility and facilitate the use and throughput and workflow for image processing during image guided therapies and 2) reduce time of image processing during procedures, which could shorten procedures thus reducing untoward patient outcomes during high risk invasive procedures and 3) provide a method for interacting with imaging data during procedures. I. Period of Performance: From date of purchase order receipt through at least a 1 year warranty period II. Purpose: The Center for Interventional Oncology requires the procurement of eye tracking glasses and stationary infrared or other optical camera devices and their associated software and hardware (see below) to be used in the preclinical and clinical research of cancer treatment that will ultimately facilitate precision planning to treat previously untreatable malignancies, reduce morbidity post procedures and to increase accuracy of target surgical tools such as scalpels and surgical instrumentation. Required items: • Hardware: 60Hz,wireless (Mobile) Eye tracking glasses with optics, Portable wireless Data Transmit Unit (DTU) and a laptop with Windows operation system including wireless reception and an SD reader • software with an API (advanced programming interface) that allows for customization of output and integration with PC or mac based software. • Free standing camera for static evaluation The free standing camera should: • System Type: Remote (contact-free) • Sampling Rate: 60Hz • Drift: <0.3 degrees • Method: Bright pupil • Binocular Tracking: Yes • Accuracy: 0.5 degrees-1.0 degree range • Head Box: 9.8 x 4.3 x 11.8 inches • Weight: up to 5lbs • Additional Details: USB 2.0 connection, ultra-lightweight system The eye tracking glasses should: a) Have automatic threshold and calibration features b) Be configured for small faces c) Include a separate over eyeglasses frame to wear over a participant's own prescription glasses d) Be lightweight wearable frames with digital eye and scene cameras, 60Hz e) Have a rechargeable Li-ion battery plus spare f) Be able to collect eye movements and point of gaze information during the performance of natural tasks allowing the use of unconstrained eye, head and hand movements under variable light conditions g) Consist of two digital high resolution cameras, one that records the scene image and the other, the participant's eye and then integrates these images into a single video recording representing the scene with a superimposed gaze cursor. h) Stores data on an SDHC card and can be configured to send real time data wirelessly to a remote work station and allows researcher to view the real time data while the task of the eyeglasses wearer is performed. i) Have an accurate point of gaze with audio capability to record what wearers are saying as they observe and/or manipulate their environments The Software should: a) Be easily integrated with parallel and independent software and projects. b) Faster loading of projects. c) Project formatting available for large projects allowing users to save projects in a condensed format to fix errors in projects with large file names. d) Numerous computations of eye data e) Meaningful graphical representation of data. f) Fixation Sequences with Static Areas of Interest (AOIs) in video player over static background. g) Added support for high resolution video, including recording at full resolution and displaying in Full Screen mode. h) Design is user friendly i) compatible with a vast range of eye tracking applications j) offer to automate and expedite data analysis for applications where gaze falls on stationary object(s) or surface(s), for analysis of eye tracking data k) Can rapidly reduce raw data to a series of fixations. l) Fixations on presentation images can be conveniently presented in size, numbers, or in duration. These fixations will automatically be assigned to a designated Areas of Interest (AOIs). III. Period of Performance: From date of receipt to at least a 1 year period of warranty on parts. IV. Constraints: a) Vendor must sign Government IT Licensing agreements b) Must be an inclusive system from a single vendor to ensure compatibility c) Offer at least 12 months of free software updates and phone support d) Offer a maintenance agreement of 12,and 24 month increments Interested Offerors may submit quotations electronically to this notice no later than 11:00 AM (EST) AUGUST 5, 2014 Questions regarding this combined synopsis/solicitation must be received in writing by this office no later than AUGUST 1,2014.
