## The **OPC UA** standard
to connect with industrial objects (or to allow communications 
with it)

This is de C implementation you can try to bind.

https://github.com/open62541/open62541

There is some other open source native implementations (not based 
on bindings) in different languages

RUST:

https://github.com/locka99/opcua

The design doc is really interesting: 
https://github.com/locka99/opcua/blob/master/docs/design.md

NODE:

https://github.com/node-opcua

This is a complete implementation in Typescript (my favourite).

This has its own "open collective": 
https://opencollective.com/node-opcua#category-BUDGET

GO:

https://github.com/gopcua/opcua


## OpenCV

This is the actual unmaintained binding for D

https://code.dlang.org/packages/opencvd


My opinion:

* It should be perfect not only the binding library,  but the 
"easy" installation (like the python version for desktop or 
headless for server side),  **Just "dub" it !**
