The Proposer must provide a pre-programmed camera that meets the following specifications: Fixed Functionality: Cameras must have all settings (e.g., photos per trigger, recovery time, time-lapse functions) fixed. Time-lapse photos: must take a single time-lapse photo daily. Trigger function: takes 3 photos upon trigger with a speed of less than 1 second between photos and rest time of 10-20 seconds between triggers. Accurate date and time: Cameras must have accurate date and time that is either user entered or automatically generated (e.g., via satellite data). The date and time must be added to the EXIF data of each photo. Photo/File Encryption: Cameras must be programmed to individually encrypt photos to removable SD memory cards (but cameras must not encrypt SD memory cards). Encrypted photos are not viewable with standard computer software prior to decryption. Must provide the process that decrypts photos. The decryption process must be accessible either through a .NET library or a command line program that runs on Windows. Desired Specifications Type of Camera: Cameras are digital and triggered by heat and motion. Consistency: Cameras do not vary from each other in terms of sensing, trigger speed, recover speed, battery life, and picture quality. Weather Functionality: Cameras are intended for outdoor, year-round use. Cameras are fully waterproof and operational in temperatures from -20°F to 100°F. Batteries: Cameras operate on commonly available (e.g. AA or other standard size) rechargeable batteries. Flash: Uses invisible or near invisible flash technology to achieve clear nighttime photos out to 30 feet. Image Details: Brand name, logos, and metadata are NOT visible on the images.
