Description

The INDI (Instrument-Neutral-Device-Interface) protocol is a standard for controlling astronomical instruments, for example mounts, cameras (CCD, CMOS, DSLR, webcam), focusers, domes, filter wheels, GPS, weather stations, etc. The protocol is network-transparent so it can connect to remote devices. INDI Library is an Open Source POSIX implementation of this protocol, composed of the following components: 1. INDI Server. 2. INDI Core Drivers: hardware drivers that communicate with many different pieces of equipment are included with INDI Library. 3. Client Library: Cross-platform POSIX and Qt5-based client libraries. The client libraries can be embedded in 3rd party applications to communicate with INDI server and devices. Various 3rd party drivers are also available in a dedicated repository (https://github.com/indilib/indi-3rdparty) and maintained by their respective owners.
