Arduino J1939 Shield For Data Traffic Simulation And Vehicle Application Development

First of all, my apologies for a "misleading" title that included the term "J1939 Shield." I picked the topic after noticing increased search traffic for the term. In all consequence, there is no real J1939 Shield but an Arduino CAN Bus Shield with supporting J1939 protocol stack software.As a matter of fact, there a several [...]

SAE J1939 Project With Arduino Uno/Mega2560: Requesting & Simulating Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)

This post describes an Arduino project (sketch) that requests the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) from an SAE J1939 vehicle network. Before I go into the technical details, let me describe the hardware configuration. First, as shown in the picture, I used an Arduino Uno with a  CAN Bus Shield. In order to simulate the SAE J1939 vehicle bus, [...]
