SYNOPSIS: This Sources Sought Announcement is to assist the US Army DEVCOM Soldier Center to identify potential sources to provide Software Development for Fog Tester Instrument Image Analysis software. The Government requests that responses be submitted electronically to mary.k.prebensen.civ@army.mil and David.p.ziegler.civ@army.mil by July 13, 2026 by 5pm EST. Background: The Government (DEVCOM Soldier Center) is in need of Fog Tester Instrument Image Analysis Software development to integrate with the existing Fog Tester Instrument control and data acquisition software. The Soldier Center designed 4th Generation Fog Tester currently utilizes a LabVIEW program, named FogTester, running on a Microsoft Windows computer to operate a custom control board that provides 120VAC electrical outlet relay switching, temperature and humidity input and recording, light(s), dual camera video input, and heating circuit temperature control of the video cameras lenses. A separate LabVIEW application, named BarTarget, is then used post-test to analyze the acquired video stills to generate a contrast ratio value of selected regions of interest. The contrast ratio values are then manually plotted by the user in Microsoft Excel and compared to known Haze Standard values. Description: The improved BarTarget application should be designed to analyze the post-test acquired video images from both cameras and generate the contrast ratio value per selected region of interest and plot the contrast ratio over the duration time of the test and output a result per designated pass/fail criteria based upon the haze calibration measurements. Additional functions should include Haze Standard calibration image acquisition and the ability to “zero” the contrast ratio, so each test article is acquired at the same starting point, this will require the application to interact with the FogTester application. Requirements: The Contractor shall provide services for software development of an improved Fog Tester data analysis application. a. General Requirements. The contractor's primary focus shall be to: (1) Develop post-test image analysis sub-program for use with Soldier Center-developed Fog Tester instrument control and data acquisition software. This sub-program will replace the current BarTarget program, and the data plotting performed in Microsoft Excel by the user. (2) Deliver a sub-program which shall also be able to process calibration tests, analyze the data and deliver a calibrations file for input to the pass/fail criteria. b. Specific Requirements: The contractor shall: (1) Develop software code to operate on a Microsoft Windows 11 operating system for image analysis software application that will interact with the FogTester software application in in a local host environment (no internet connection required), have users input test condition parameters (file save location, test duration, camera configuration), pe…
