Quick Summary
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), specifically Network Contracting Office (NCO) 17-VA South Texas (VASTHCS) facilities, is conducting market research via a Sources Sought Notice for an MRI Compatible Projector System. The requirement is for the Hyperion 2 projection system from Psychology Software Tools (PST) for the VISN 17 Center of Excellence in Waco, TX. This notice aims to identify potential sources and determine possible set-asides. Responses are due June 29, 2026, by 11:00 AM CT.
Scope of Work
The VA requires a complete MRI Compatible Projector System, including:
- Hyperion 2-120 MRI Digital Projection System (PST-101891): High-resolution (1920x1080) DLP projector with automatic frame synchronization, RF filtered enclosure, and control room console.
- Hyperion Short-Throw Lens (PST-101322R): For use with the Hyperion 2-120 system.
- MRI-Compatible Pedestal Projector Stand (PST-102627): With locking caster wheels.
- Training: Vendor must provide training for designated technical and personnel staff.
The system must be built from non-magnetic materials, shielded against radio-frequency pulses, and integrate seamlessly with existing PST products (e.g., MR-safe button-response boxes, E-Prime stimulus presentation software), Brain Vision, and Eyelink systems. The current lab uses an aging Hyperion 1 system, and the new system must ensure compatibility and speedy data transmission critical for research.
