Introduction
A free open-source C/C++ OpenIGTLink library is available for your software development. It provides an easy-to-use C/C++ API to generate OpenIGTLink messages and send them to another OpenIGTLink software over the network using TCP/IP. Please see [the Tutorial page] (tutorials.html) to learn how easy it is to add an OpenIGTLink interface to your application.
