INDI

Responsable: Not assigned

##Project Description

Build a wrapper to access the INDI library from chimera.

INDI is a distributed control protocol designed to operate astronomical instrumentation. INDI is small, flexible, easy to parse, and scalable. It supports common DCS functions such as remote control, data acquisition, monitoring, and a lot more.

They support a huge list of telescopes, focusers, filter wheels, ccds and domes. The idea is to have an chimera indi instrument of each type.

Suggestion: Start by looking to pygtkindiclient (DCD) sourceforge project at http://pygtkindiclient.sourceforge.net/
