IRIS Lab Facilities
The IRIS Lab is part of the Electrical and Computer
Engineering Department at the University of Tennessee. The IRIS Lab occupies
over 15 rooms in both Ferris Hall, home of the Electrical and Computer
Engineering Department, and the Science and Engineering research facility.

The lab is equipped to conduct research in the fields of 3D computer vision,
data visualization, image processing (including enhancement, restoration,
and feature extraction), robot vision and sensing, data fusion, evidential
reasoning, and pattern recognition. The IRIS Laboratory possesses
state-of-the-art hardware for image acquisition, processing, and display.
For computer processing, 2 Silicon Graphics Workstations, over 30 high-end
PCs, and 4 laptops are available. A number of powerful computers, including
an Infinite-Reality Onyx, Origin, and an UltraSparc server are available to
the IRIS laboratory faculty and students through The University of Tennessee
Computing Center and Data Visualization Laboratory. For image acquisition
and display, the lab has 2D and 3D laser range scanners, an Omniview camera
system for stereo imaging, proximity sensors, several digitizers, a flatbed
scanner, a Kodak DCS465 high-resolution Digital camera, a three-CCD color
camera professional NTSC, other medium-resolution color and black and white
CCD cameras, and high-resolution color monitors. A three-wall reconfigurable
CAVE system is used for visualization of large data sets. The IRIS
Laboratory also owns very high-resolution four-axis positioning tables and
indexers for sensor placement, as well as model environments used to
simulate possible work situations for robotic equipment.
