AI-Enabled Incident Response System with sUAS and Human Copilots (AIRS-COP)

The buyer requires an AI-enabled incident response system with small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUAS) and human copilots, designated as AIRS-COP. The scope involves reviewing and assessing navigation, path planning, and obstacle avoidance for traffic incident response, while evaluating AI applications and Vision-Language Models (VLM) for real-time data processing and automated decision-making. The vendor must examine human-AI collaboration workflows, analyze computing architectures for battery and thermal management, and enable AI-aided autonomous navigation to incident sites based on real-time observations. Furthermore, the contractor must integrate vision large language models into edge and cloud pipelines to support real-time data collection, processing, and first response, ultimately providing recommendations and insights for the effort. Only USA-based onshore organizations are eligible to bid, and the contractor must perform the work offsite at its own office premises. The buyer seeks proposals for the budget, but the provided text specifies no submission deadlines, question dates, evaluation criteria, or contract terms.
