I posted a video about my project in which I use a Raspberry Pi to display realtime CAN bus data in the car's own web browser.


Let me know if you have any questions. -Ben

I show how to collect detailed CAN bus data from a Tesla Model S, and display it in the car's own web browser!

I used socket.io, which is a module that installs into node.js: socket.io

Basic sequence to setup the server on the Pi:
sudo ip link set can0 type can bitrate 500000 listen-only on
sudo ip link set can0 up

candump -cae can0,0:0,#FFFFFFFF

candump -cae can0,0:0,#FFFFFFFF | grep 106 | awk -Winteractive '{ print $10}' | node app.js

I will post the node.js code on my blog:
