Maker Faire Demo

This is the code for the Carloop demo at World Maker Faire 2016 in New York: a dashboard from a car that is controlled through Carloop.

The main program reads 3 knobs (engine speed, vehicle speed and engine temperature) and transmit CAN messages with those values to control the dials in the the dashboard.

A car pedal was added for Bay Area Maker Faire 2018.

The Carloop also interfaces a Linux laptop or Raspberry Pi running canutils, a suite of program for car hacking.

Hardware

The 3 knobs must be connect this way:

  • Connect the top pin of each knob to common power.

  • Connect the bottom pin of each knob to common ground.

  • Connect the middle pin of each pin to different signal wires

  • A2: common power

  • A3: common ground

  • A4: engine speed signal

  • A5: vehicle speed signal

  • A6: engine temperature signal

Instructions

Compile and flash the firmware using the Particle CLI
