NASA, Ames Research Center Solicitation: Eye Tracker Systems (#NNA08CG83C-CTO89)
The NASA Ames Research Center (NASA Ames) is hereby soliciting information about potential sources for the purchase of three (3) eye tracker systems. These systems will be used as part of an urgent interim software package delivery to the end users for integrated system verification and validation. The applicable NAICS (North American Industry Classification System) code for this acquisition is 334519, "Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing." The coordinating size standard is 500 employees.
This is a request for information only and does not constitute a commitment, implied or otherwise, that NASA Ames will take procurement action in this matter. This preliminary information is being made available for acquisition planning purposes only, subject to FAR Clause 52.215-3, entitled "Request for Information or Solicitation for Planning Purposes." It does not constitute a Request for Proposal, and it is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government to enter into a contract, nor will the Government pay for the information submitted in response to this request. This request is subject to review or cancellation at any time. NASA Ames is requesting information that responds to any or all of the topics listed below.
NASA Ames invites responses to this inquiry for the purpose of purchasing three (3) eye tracker systems to support a task order under the Intelligent Systems Research and Development Support contract (ISRDS--NNA08CG83C). The purpose of the task is to undertake advanced development of the first prototype version of the Investigator Aid system. This version shall incorporate both improvements in existing routines and the ability to incorporate foreign language speech to text, visual, and specialized physiological data such as eye tracking and thermal imaging. The work is part of a longer-term research effort for the development of improved information validity assessment.
