Contract Opportunity Analysis

The Naval Research Laboratory, part of the Department of the Navy, is seeking information from sources that can provide a digital twin modeling and software solution for its Laboratory for Autonomous Systems Research. The work calls for a high-fidelity digital twin of the LASR facility, including the Desert, Littoral, Prototyping, and Tropical high bay spaces, along with models of autonomous robotic systems platforms to support simulation, testing, and validation. The environment is to be developed with NVIDIA Omniverse tools and parameterized physical properties so researchers can explore robotic and autonomous system behaviors in realistic digital environments, with final acceptance tied to successful integration and testing on LASR hardware in Washington, District of Columbia. Daniel St. Denis is listed as the primary contact at daniel.l.stdenis.civ@us.navy.mil.

AI Summary
The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) seeks a vendor to develop a high-fidelity digital twin of its Laboratory for Autonomous Systems Research (LASR) facility. This digital twin, utilizing NVIDIA Omniverse tools, will model four distinct high bay spaces—Desert, Littoral, Prototyping, and Tropical—along with various autonomous robotic systems (RAS) platforms. The project requires the vendor to create virtual environments with parameterized physical properties, develop modular RAS platform models with accurate dynamics and appearance, and provide tools for configuration, testing, and validation. The digital twin will enable cost-effective simulation and testing of RAS behaviors in realistic digital environments. Deliverables include the digital twin, associated software, comprehensive documentation, and ongoing technical support. Final acceptance hinges on successful integration and testing on LASR hardware.
