Clemson University Intelligent River® details

John Kelly, VP, Economic Development
From the first time I met Gene Eidson, I could tell he was a big picture thinker. We were building the Restoration Institute at that time. We needed some work done in environmental studies and Gene was the perfect match.




Gene is an interdisciplinary person. When he came to campus he began to attract people from across the campus as we hoped he would. He linked up with the computer science people and they formed a technology between Gene's expertise and Jason Hallstrom's expertise that will allow us to do direct sensing of nature.

It's a very unique application that can be used across the world, and it incorporates the strengths of faculty across the university. There are more than 50 faculty directly involved in the project. It also has great economic development potential.
