CLIN 0001: 1 EA High-Speed Camera System, Brand Name or Equal to the Shimadzu HyperVision HPV-2 High-Speed Camera CLIN 0002: 1 EA Shipping - FOB Destination to Eglin AFB, FL 32578 Requirement: 1. Basic Configuration: The system will include a Camera Head that contains an Image Sensor, and which can accept an included Camera Lens via a standard lens mount (F or C). The system may include separate Power Supply and Control Units in order to minimize the size of the Camera Head. The system will include all Interface Cables and Power Cables required for operation with 110 VAC, single phase, 20 A, 60 Hz electrical service. The Control Unit will include any required specialized Software for recording, manipulating, and exporting image data. 2. Mechanical Dimensions: The Vendor will include a Mechanical Sketch of the entire system with correct component external dimensions, and cable attachment locations, in their proposal. The Camera Head footprint must fit within an 8-inch-wide by 16-inch-long rectangular open section on an existing optical table. The Camera Head must be short enough to enable horizontal operation with the center of the Camera Lens located 12-inches above the optical table top. The Power Supply and Control Units must fit within an existing standard 19-inch electronics rack. The Interface Cables and Power Cables will permit at least a 12-foot separation between the Camera Head and the Control Unit and Power Supply. 3. System Performance: The System must be capable of recording a sequence of at least 100 images at rates up to and including 1,000,000 frames per second (fps). The image size at 1,000,000 fps must be at least 80,000 pixels in a 6:5, 5:4, or 4:3 rectangular format. The System must be capable of digitizing the image data at 10-bit resolution, or better. The Image Sensor will include no more than 0.02 % defective pixels. The Camera Lens will provide an approximately 0.5-inch wide field of view at a working distance of 20 inches. The System must accept an external TTL-level electrical trigger signal to synchronize data recording with an external event. The System must provide a TTL-level Monitor Output electrical signal corresponding to the Image Sensor exposure times. In a secondary application, the linearity of the intensity response of the Image Sensor is important, so a CCD sensor is preferred to a CMOS sensor. 4. Serviceability and Warranty: The Vendor will clearly describe which parts are covered under the standard Warranty, and the duration of the standard Warranty.
