AI Contract Overview

The Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center Atlantic is seeking information regarding commercially available Interactive Virtual Environments to support the Air Force Medical Modeling & Simulation program in developing a Virtual Medical Center proof of concept. This virtual environment would enable users to interact via personalized avatars, allowing communication through text and VOIP and facilitating patient, doctor, and multi-specialty clinic interactions. The system must include virtual training for personnel and support dynamic network resource allocation for load balancing, provisioning, object management, monitoring, security, scaling, and redundancy. It is intended to support thousands of concurrent users with an emphasis on high availability, low latency, and reliability. The Virtual Medical Center demonstration environment should feature virtual lecture halls, classrooms, doctor's offices, labs, and other necessary medical facility areas. Responses to the Request for Information are for planning and information gathering only and do not constitute a solicitation or intent to award a contract. Vendors are asked to provide company details, product descriptions, contact information, offering type, and cost data while refraining from submitting proprietary information as all submissions will be public. Questions related to technical aspects should be addressed to the designated technical point of contact, with non-technical and contractual questions directed to the contract specialist. The RFI was posted on July 19, 2011, with responses due by August 9, 2011, and is intended solely for research and assessment purposes to help guide future acquisition efforts.
