IRIS Kits¶
IRIS Kit Revisions¶
An IRIS Kit is a collection of hardware delivered in a Pelican case. It includes the receiver, audio interface and the necessary cabling and adapters, but not a source.
There are three official types of IRIS hardware kits:
-
Revision 3, released in 2020
-
Revision 2, released and discontinued in 2019
-
Revision 1, produced from 2014 to 2018
A fully assembled and tested Revision 3 system may be purchased directly, or you can buy the individual components yourself.

In addition to one of the IRIS kits above, you must provide the following equipment:
- Laptop computer (requirements)

- Source loudspeaker, power amplifier and necessary cabling (details here)
- AC power extension leads
- Headphones for monitoring microphone signals
- Paper and pen
