ARDUINO BASED CAN PROTOCOL IMPLEMENTATION IN VECHICLE CONTROL SYSTEM

Abstract: Based on requirements of modern vehicle, in- vehicle Controller Area Network (CAN) architecture has been implemented. In order to reduce point to point wiring harness in vehicle automation, CAN is suggested as a means for data communication within the vehicle environment. The benefits of CAN bus based network over traditional point to point schemes will offer increased flexibility and expandability for future technology insertions. This paper presents the development and implementation of a digital driving system for a semi-autonomous vehicle to improve the driver- vehicle interface. It uses an ARDUINO based data acquisition system that uses ADC to bring all control data from analog to digital format and visualize through LCD. The communication module used in this project is embedded networking by CAN which has efficient data transfer. It also takes feedback of vehicle conditions like Vehicle speed, Engine temperature etc., and controlled by main controller.
