OBJECTIVE:

The General Services Administration (GSA) is conducting market research to identify commercially available, handheld 360-degree cameras capable of capturing visual construction-progress documentation for federal facilities. Captured media will be handled as Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and ingested into a FedRAMP-authorized IT system via removable media or a direct encrypted connection to that system.

FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY

FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY

SCOPE:

The Government seeks a capture device that operates independently of vendor cloud services and consumer mobile applications. The Government will consider two capture configurations, described in Section 2.3. The offline configuration transfers imagery by removable media. The managed connected configuration transfers imagery over a Government-controlled encrypted connection directly to the Government’s FedRAMP-authorized system. The Government recognizes that few commercial products may meet every requirement today. Vendors are encouraged to respond if a current product meets some of the requirements, or if the vendor could offer a government variant that meets them.

REQUIREMENTS

Section 2. Technical and Security Requirements

2.1. Physical and Capture Capabilities

A1. Form Factor Handheld, single-operator device capable of continuous spherical capture at normal walking speed. Fixed-mount cameras are outside the scope of this RFI. A2. Format & Processing Produces spherical video in a standard, openly documented format, such as equirectangular MP4 with spherical video metadata, and still imagery in JPG format. Files must be usable by the Government’s reality capture platform without proprietary desktop decoding or stitching software on Government-Furnished Equipment (GFE). Vendors should state whether stitching occurs in the camera and list native and exported file formats. A3. Capture Specifications Vendors should state still image resolution, video resolution and frame rate, lens configuration, battery life, and operating temperature range.
