- Small Business Sources Sought Notice Background Information: The mission of the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) is to transform the understanding and treatment of mental illnesses through basic and clinical research, paving the way for prevention, recovery, and cure. For the Institute to continue fulfilling this vital public health mission, it must foster innovative thinking and ensure that a full array of novel scientific perspectives are used to further discovery in the evolving science of brain, behavior, and experience. In this way, breakthroughs in science can become breakthroughs for all people with mental illnesses. NIMH NIF facilitates research in the fundamental brain mechanisms that allow sensory-motor coordination, specifically the visual/oculomotor system. During experiments a computer-driven monitor system displays images that are designed to test perception in an awake behaving monkey. The monkey will be monitored for both brain activity, eye direction, and in some cases asked to perform a simple task. A critical portion of the experimental setup is how the image is presented to the monkey. The National Institute of Mental Health Neurophysiology Imaging Facility requires a projector and data acquisition system for use by researchers to perform research in the fundamental brain mechanisms that allow sensory-motor coordination, specifically the visual/oculomotor system. During experiments a computer-driven monitor system displays images that are designed to test perception in an awake behaving monkey. The monkey will be monitored for both brain activity, eye direction, and in some cases asked to perform a simple task. This projector will be installed in our soon-to-be-built 3T magnet facility in late 2016/early 2017. Acquisition Description: NIMH requires a POPixx Lite: Projector and lite data acquisition system inclusive of the following part numbers and quantities: VPX‐PRO‐5000A PROPixx Lite: Projector and lite data acquisition system QTY: 1 VPX‐ACC‐6508 Super long‐throw lens, throw ratio of 3.3 ‐ 5.94 : 1, focus range 4.0 ‐ 40.0 ft QTY: 1 VPX‐ACC‐7000 Dual‐link DVI cable + booster and active USB cable, length 35 feet/10 meters QTY: 1 The PROPixx is a unique DLP LED projector which has been designed to be the most flexible display possible for vision research. The PROPixx features a native resolution of 1920 x 1080 and can be driven with refresh rates up to 1440 Hz with deterministic timing. The PROPixx uses high brightness LEDs as a light source, giving a larger color gamut and much longer lifetime than halogen light sources (60,000 hrs vs 2,000 hrs). NIMH's LEDs also support high bit depth and high frequency full color stimulation, which would not be possible with a color-wheel/halogen architecture. For stereo vision applications, our high speed circular polarizer can project stereoscopic stimuli for passive polarizing glasses at up to 400 Hz. Anticipated period of performance: Delivery of the acquired equipment is anticipated within 90 days of receipt of order. A firm fixed-price is contemplated for this award.
