About this award
The National Institute of Standards and Technology awarded a $494.6K firm fixed-price purchase order to Visbox Inc. for an Immersive Visualization Environment upgrade supporting the agency's High Performance Computing and Visualization Group. The project involves replacing NIST's existing projection-based Computer-Aided Virtual Environment (CAVE) system with a new Direct View LED display system featuring dual-view stereoscopic capability and higher resolution output. The upgraded system must support a minimum of three simultaneous users through head and hand tracking technologies and maintain operational capability for at least three years of ongoing research applications. The contract is designated as a Total Small Business Set-Aside, with work to be performed in St. Joseph, Illinois, and is scheduled for completion by April 9, 2025.
This award originated from a Sources Sought Notice posted in January 2024 under NAICS code 541519 (Information Technology Value-Added Resellers). The requirement specified that vendors demonstrate prior experience providing three Linux-based immersive visualization systems with technical capabilities meeting minimum pixel count and seam specifications. Visbox Inc. was selected following a competitive process that included a site visit in late January 2024, succeeding an incumbent contractor who had performed a previous CAVE system upgrade in 2013 valued at approximately $580K.
