Anyone out there have any experience using CANBUS with Linux?

Yes - we are using ESD CAN-PCIe 200. It is using a SJA1000 chipset, which is supported by the Linux kernel build in socket CAN stack. For what we need it works flawless.

We are exploring accessing the wheel movement information. We currently install our own wheel pulse transducer that has <1mm resolution. We use that resolution to control high speed lasers that are sampling the road for the calculation of things like texture. I cannot see how one could get such access via this mechanism. It is not just to know that X number of pulses have occurred. We need to act on each individual one. We currently use a small embedded computer card (no OS) and our own pulse transducer for this. It can act on individual pulses (controlling various bits of hardware) and relaying summary information as needed. We are exploring what we might accomplish with CANBUS for this. -- Roger Oberholtzer -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
