- Description
- This is a competitively awarded single award indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ) type contract with a 48 month performance period utilizing Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee (CPFF) or Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Task Orders. The proposed contract will support Research and Development (R&D) to fight and win our Nation�s wars by providing prompt, sustained dominance across the full range of military operations and spectrum of conflict in support of combatant commanders. In order to keep pace with advancements in technology, the Warfighter kit must transition to devices comprised of digital sensors and displays. Digital Night Vision Technology (DNVT) enables this transition to ground dismounted and aviation head mounted systems, providing a fully digital, binocular Night Vision Goggle (NVG) coupled with enhancements including fused imagery short wave infrared (SWIR), long wave infrared (LWIR) and augmented reality (AR). DNVT provides a solution for maintaining a heads-up security posture by presenting all relevant battlefield and air data to the Warfighter on a heads-up display that incorporates improvements and upgrades to provide greatly enhanced resolution, sensitivity / sensing, vision, laser hardening and situational awareness. This will allow the Warfighter to keep their focus on rapidly developing situations while enhancing decision making. These and similar enhancements to DNVT will allow dismounted and aviation Warfighters peerless overmatch in their access and ability to collect, disseminate, display, and respond to digital information. DNVT will also augment and support the Digital Enhanced Low-light Tactical Asset-Individual (DELTA-I) program, also a C5ISR Center program. This effort exploits and continues more than two decades of Department of Defense (DOD) Science and Technology (S&T) research, development, and investment into digital low-light level (LLL) cameras. Previous efforts have found that the frame-rate of information presented to the eye is of paramount importance for dismounted mobility and aviation, and at 120 frames-per-second, DNVT will be the fastest operating digital NVG once in production. Under this contract DELTA-I and DNVT will evolve capabilities through development, integration, experimentation, and laboratory and platform test and evaluation, including, but not limited to: novel sensing modalities, hardware and software development, integration, networking, and operational integration with a variety of ground and aviation systems. DNVT will substantially enhance the Warfighter�s situational awareness and decision-making abilities.�
