  The Large Binocular Telescope, with its expansive collecting area, angular
resolving power, and advanced optical design, provides a robust platform for
development and operation of advanced instrumentation for astronomical
research. The LBT currently hosts a mature suite of instruments for
spectroscopy and imaging at optical through mid-infrared wavelengths, supported
by sophisticated adaptive optics systems. This contribution summarizes the
current state of instrumentation, including upgrades to existing instruments
and commissioning of second generation instruments now in progress. The LBT is
soliciting proposals for next generation instrument concepts, with
participation open to consortium members and others interested in participation
in the Observatory.
