The document is an invitation for bid from Anne Arundel County, Maryland for a mobile driving simulation system. The document provides specifications and requirements for the system, including the inclusion of a light industrial driving area that represents less urban geographic regions. The system should include various elements commonly found in municipal regions such as speed limit zones, emergency services, corporate buildings, manufacturing buildings, fast food stores, gas stations, etc.
The document also specifies the training opportunities that should be provided by the system, such as maneuvering in city streets, maintaining proper speeds and following distances, reacting to traffic signals and signs, making lane changes and turns, parking, and responding to emergency vehicles.
In terms of audio features, the system should include pre-recorded or computer-generated audio instructions for consistent training. It should also generate sounds consistent with the visual scene and the driver's actions, including vehicle sounds, collisions, sirens, horns, and environmental sounds.
The system should have an Instructor Operator Station (IOS) with a PC, flat screen monitor, and mouse for the instructor to control and monitor the training sessions. The IOS should allow the instructor to make choices regarding driving conditions, environmental conditions, training scenarios, mechanical failures, vehicle selection, replay, and restart.
Replay and restart capabilities should be provided for subjective instructor feedback and immediate correction of problem areas. The instructor should be able to establish specific replay marks and review specific training objectives.
The system should also have record-keeping capabilities, with data stored in a database accessible from the IOS. The system should be capable of saving the student's performance for future review.
In terms of hardware specifications, the system should fit in a designated simulator system room or trailer and pass through a 36-inch wide by 80-inch high access opening when disassembled. The operating temperature should be between 60ÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂðF and 80ÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂðF, with a preferred range of less than 70ÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂðF. The system should operate on 120 VAC electrical service and draw no more than 20 amps per dedicated circuit.
