   + The `bayer` carrier uses alternatively
     [libdc1394](http://damien.douxchamps.net/ieee1394/libdc1394/) or, if the
     library is not available, links statically a few files taken from
     [libdc1394](http://libdc1394.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=libdc1394/libdc1394;a=blob_plain;f=libdc1394/dc1394/bayer.c;hb=HEAD).

   + The `mpi` carrier uses MPI (license dependent on the implementation).
   + The `dynamixelAX12Ftdi` device uses
     [libftdi](https://www.intra2net.com/en/developer/libftdi/).
   + The `SDLJoypad` device uses alternatively
     [SDL 1.2](https://libsdl.org/license.php).
   + The `ffmpeg_grabber` and `ffmpeg_writer` devices, and the
     `image_compression_ffmpeg` and `sound_compression_mp3` portmonitors use
     [Ffmpeg](https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/blob/master/LICENSE.md).
   + The websocket carrier uses the `Websocket` library, which contains some

   + `YARP_gsl` uses the GNU Scientific Library, under the GPL 2 or later.
   + `example/matrix/gsl_example.cpp` uses GSL, under the GPL 2 or later.
 * A few optional parts of YARP are released under the terms of the GPL license,
   version 3 or later:
   + `QtYARPScope` uses QCustomPlot that is GPL3+ and it is therefore GPL3+.
   + `yarpscope` uses `QtYARPScope` that is GPL3+ and it is therefore GPL3+.
