Wearable Eye Tracking Suite

Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC) Toronto Research Centre (TRC) has a requirement for a wearable eye tracking suite for human-in-the-loop and usability experimentation in naturalistic task environments. The primary application of this work will be the evaluation of operator and small team (approximately 6 to 8 people in size) cognitive workload and decision making strategies across various operational tasks in real world settings. DRDC TRC is requesting an eye tracking suite (i.e., a set of eye trackers to collect data on at least one small team as described above and additional devices for spare capacity) to support these goals.

Firm requirement must be received 6 weeks from contract award.

The requirement is subject to the provisions of the World Trade Organization Agreement on Government Procurement (WTO-AGP), the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), the Canada-European Union Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA), and the Canadian Free Trade Agreement (CFTA).
