The Army Materiel Command has issued a Request for Information (RFI) for the service’s Rapid Equipping Force (REF), which seeks technology that is able to determine an individual’s behavioral intent and emotion, the physiological signs of stress, fear or deception that cannot be manipulated. The REF’s mission is to rapidly increase mission capability while reducing risk to soldiers and others by equipping operational commanders with off-the-shelf solutions or near-term developmental items that can be researched, developed and acquired quickly. The REF receives requirements from operational commanders in war zones setting forth the capabilities needed. The technologies being sought under the RFI are similar to those being used in a Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology demonstration project called Future Attribute Screening Technology. The goal of FAST is to demonstrate if the data generated from various sensors can be fused to automatically identify if individuals may have hostile intent. Sol. No. W91CRBRFIBEHAVIORSCAN.
