Hello everyone,
i am working on a project were i be using number of sensors with inbuilt CAN that needs to be interfaced with arduino for giving warning with led and buzzer along with the ECU in vehicle. i have shortlisted few arduinos for this project but i am unable to get the clarity .
one is Arduino due(that needs a transceiver and currently not supported by arduino APIS), then i came across CANBED that have inbuilt CAN controller, transceiver and microcontroller. being completely new to CAN i am finding it difficult to decide which one should i consider as there are very limited resources available for CANBED and will it be be enough for my project?
one more doubt in CANBED specification its J-2234 but currently its j-1939. so will that be an issue?
maybe i need lot more clarity on CAN so if you can suggest some resources and answer my doubt that will be really helpful.
thankyou!
the ESP32 has a onboard Two-Wire Automotive Interface (TWAI) which just requires a High-Speed CAN Transceiver to interface to a Canbus network
the ESP32-TWAI-CAN library is supported by the Arduino IDE
thankyou, this is one of the options i have considered but i want to keep it compact so i was considering CANBED. as i have mentioned the sensor i am using have inbuilt CAN that will transmit the data to arduino. so will CANBED suffix for that? and how can i read that CAN message on Arduino? if you can enlighten a bit on that. that will really be helpful.
Both the Wifi and Minima versions have this feature. I am also just beginning to learn about CAN and I think is a pretty slick addition to the Uno R4, or at least seems to be from my limited understanding. Maybe this is what you're after?

similar to the ESP32 the CAN controller is embedded in the UNO R4 Minima's microcontroller - it also requires an external transceiver to interface to the Canbus network
the ESP32 has the advantage of builtin WiFi, Bluetooth Classic and BLE and lower cost
