Description

CAN communication is widely used in mobile robotics to connect devices such as motor controllers, battery management systems and other embedded components.

This internship focuses on developing a modular PC application adaptable to different CAN interfaces and devices, providing a unified solution for communication, real-time monitoring and system diagnostics.

Objective

Develop a configurable application supporting:

• CAN message transmission and reception.
• Real-time visualisation.
• Data logging.
• A diagnostic layer to monitor individual device statuses, detect communication errors and provide a system-wide overview.
• Interactive plots and configurable dashboards to analyse device parameters and identify abnormal behaviour.
