Welcome to the blog of Dr. Ken Tindell, CTO of Canis Automotive Labs. This blog is focused on the work
Canis is doing on CAN bus and CAN security, but also covers the design of
embedded software and hardware for automotive systems and the Yes We Can project at Canis that
develops hardware, software and tools for CAN bus: the CANHack toolkit
for injecting faults into the CAN protocol, CANPico and CANHack hardware boards for
the Raspberry Pi Pico, and the can2
logic analyzer CAN protocol decoder.

This is the second CAN Quiz Question on the CAN protocol. This one is quite hard and not only tests knowledge of the dark corners of the CAN protocol, it...
CryptoCAN is an encryption scheme for CAN messaging developed by Canis Labs. It’s designed to fit the publish/subscribe method of communication that CAN was designed for, and has a simple...
The Raspberry Pi Pico is an excellent embedded platform, noted for its excellent documentation (and also the RP2040 microcontroller, one of the few that is currently not made from unobtainium)....
I recently gave a 45 minute webinar at the ASRG on the topic of CAN protocol attacks, demonstrating five different attacks on the CAN protocol itself. There is also a...
Here I will explain how one of our CANPico boards can be made into a
USB CAN adapter firmware to display CAN frames on the bus in Wireshark.
We’ve pushed a new version of the CANPico firmware that updates it to MicroPython v1.16. The update also fixes some bugs but the biggest change is that the firmware adds...
Now that the CANPico board is available for order online
from SK Pang we thought
it would be good to make a short video on getting started with it.
The CANPico board is at last available, and ready for order online from SK Pang. It’s been a long time coming, longer than we expected thanks to some major problems...
We have recently been developing an API for CAN under MicroPython for the new CANPico board from Canis Automotive Labs. There are some really neat features of the CAN support...
Canis Automotive Labs has three CAN boards in the pipeline and with luck we should be announcing availability in a few weeks, so we’ve produced a sneak preview of those...
The Raspberry Pi Pico doesn’t have a CAN controller built-in but that’s
no barrier: we can send CAN frames in software!
