Technical Point of Contact (TPOC) or Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR)

The Data and Analysis Center (DAC) Lethaliy/Survivabilty and Human Integration (LSH) has a requirement for a scientific grade mid-wave infrared (MWIR) imager. The MWIR imager will be used to make calibrated radiometric measurements of targets of interest to the DAC. The Contractor shall provide one MWIR imager that meets the following minimum requirements.

• The imager shall utilize a focal plane array (FPA) of minimum size 640 pixels (horizontal) by 512 pixels (vertical).

• The FPA pixels shall be fabricated from indium antimonide (InSb) and have a pixel pitch of 20 micrometers (µm) or smaller.

• The FPA shall be mounted in a pour filled liquid nitrogen dewar and the dewar shall include a system for mounting removeable cold apertures and optical bandpass filters in front of the FPA.

• The spectral response of the imager shall be a minimum of 1 to 5.2 µm.

• The imager shall be capable of acquiring images at a rate of at least 475 frames per second (FPS) at the 640 x 512 window size.

• The imager shall include the ability to set the FPA region of interest to a smaller window size.

• The imager shall include the ability to set the integration time of the FPA.

• The dynamic range of the imager shall be 14-bit and shall include the option to set the dynamic range to 13-bits in order to increase the frame rate.

• An adapter for mounting Janos Asio bayonet mount lenses to the imager shall be provided.

• A four position filter wheel shall be included with the imager and the filter wheel shall accept 1-inch diameter optical filters of thickness 1 mm. The filter wheel shall include an arrangement such that the filters are cooled.

• The dewar shall include a base plate for mounting the camera on a tripod and the base plate shall have unthreaded pass through holes in the corner and a threaded ¼-20 inch hole in the middle.

• A software development kit (SDK) shall be included with the imager to facilitate development of a data acquisition system (DAS) for acquiring imagery data.

• The imager shall include a capability for time tagging every frame of acquired imagery with an IRIG-B signal.

• The imager shall include Camera Link connectors for connection to and communication with a DAS.
