Description

Trade Agreement: Canadian Free Trade Agreement (CFTA) Tendering Procedures: The bidder must supply Canadian goods and/or services Competitive Procurement Strategy: Best Overall

Proposal Comprehensive Land Claim Agreement: No Nature of Requirements:

a.Title: Artificial neural networks pattern classification software for the analysis of spectroscopic signatures produced by high power lasers.

b.Description of work

The type of reactions occurring when a High Power Laser (HPL) is incident onto a solid object is highly dependent on the incident beam properties.

In fact, incident beam power, diameter and pointing stability are amongst the parameters that determine if the laser will heat, melt, oxidize or vaporize the material.

As the distance between the laser and the object is augmented, it becomes increasingly difficult to assess for the impact of the laser on the object.

This contract aims to develop an automated software to analyze, nearly in real-time, the data collected and inform the user about the nature of the object interrogated as well as the processes that took place.

c.Client Department

The organization for which the services are to be rendered is Defence Research and Development Canada Valcartier Research Centre.

d.Period of the contract

The period of contract is up to 4 years after the date of contract award.
