Tender Details

Description

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) intends to negotiate on a sole-source basis with Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence Inc. under the authority of 41 US 3304(a)(1) for a PRS Leica AT960-LR Tracker System manufactured in Switzerland.

Background Information and Basis for Sole Source

The US Department of Commerce (DOC), NIST, Intelligent Systems Division (ISD) develops, advances, and deploys measurement science and standards to speed the development, adoption, and integration of leading-edge intelligent technologies to advance U.S. manufacturing performance. One of the focus areas of ISD is to develop measurement science for sensing and perception system performance characterization to reduce the risk related to the adoption of new technologies and to advance the agility, safety, and productivity of collaborative industrial and mobile robots. This requirement is part of the Manufacturing Science for Manufacturing Robotics (MSMR) program. Evaluating 3D sensors such as the ones used in robotic bin-picking systems is one area that MSMR is exploring as thousands of such systems are being deployed in the US and around the world. Developing performance metrics and evaluation procedures requires access to the technologies to establish ground truth. Laser tracker technology was invented at NIST in the 1980s and is the gold standard for short—and long-range high-accuracy measurements. The required laser tracker system is needed by the NIST ISD to obtain ground-truth information while evaluating 3D sensors, part inspection, and robotic arms.

The NIST Engineering Laboratory (EL) and Physical Measurement Laboratory (PML) collaborate on work related to the use of 3D imaging systems as well as standard development for these systems on a regular basis. EL-s current work includes a need to track robot arms and mobile robots in real-time with very high precision. A laser tracker with the ability to measure the 6 degree-of-freedom posit...
