library is an open source software to control astronomical equipment it is based on the instrument neutral distributed interface indi protocol and acts as a bridge between software clients and hardware devices since it is network transparent it enables you to communicate with your equipment transparently over any network without requiring any 3rd party software it is simple enough to control a single backyard telescope and powerful enough to control state of the art observatories across multiple locations why indi features open source 01 available for all to contribute to and re use under the commercial friendly lgpl v2 license cross platform 02 macos linux and windows support client agnostic 03 drivers are written once for all supported clients no need to update clients when
