Instro: An open-source Python library for interfacing with hardware test equipment (in Heritage Gallery)
2026-07-16 , Memorial Hall

Instro is an open-source Python library that puts one typed API in front of power supplies, DAQs, multimeters, oscilloscopes, and more. Write your test once, swap the driver, and your code stays put. We drive a power supply live using the built-in simulator, no hardware required, and show how to add your own.
