Through this BAA, DHS S&T is seeking responses to develop a reconfigurable FAST Demonstration Laboratory facility to support human behavior screening research, development and demonstration in the field at a variety of locations. The FAST Demonstration Laboratory will be used to host screening experiments as well as tests and evaluations to characterize the utility of behavioral, physical, and sensor based components of human screening to enhance the performance of security staff that is responsible for discerning intent to cause damage or harm. Field research will be conducted in multiple venues including high volume transportation, border and special security events applications, as well as access control for critical infrastructures. This effort is intended to result in the delivery of an initial prototype system in 6 months and a final prototype of the FAST Demonstration Laboratory within one year of contract award.
