CAN BUS Gaming Simulator

Thank you for your awesome support!

We've reached the big mark of one hundred followers!

This is just awesome! Thank you.

Hi!

I used the last time to build a Windows software which simulates an VW Radio (RNS 310).
You can find it in the download section of this project page. Or here

I coded it from scratch and I even drew every single image by myself. So please don't hesitate to PM me for bug reports :D

For support or feedback please also write me an PM.

Thanks!

Finally I ported my VW RNS Simulator software on to Android Platform.

Hi!

Finally I got my radio case assembled and here's the holy moment.

This was my first try and it worked!

But I still have to improve the screen resolution and HDMI overscan.

1. Get a female and male 32 pin head connector:

2. Solder them together like this (maybe a little bit more beatuiful):

3. Connect the "adapter" to the dashboard like this:

4. Now connect the FDD cable to the adapter. Please be careful with the red marked position on the connector I drew - it matches the red marked wire of the FDD cable. The outer two pins on the other side are not connected:

5. Now connect the other end of the cable to the board:

Hi fellow followers!

The box is ready and almost assembled. I hope to get the case finished in the next few weeks. You find the STL file in the new download section at the bottom of this page.

Here some photos:

I hope your start in the new year was good to all of you and (even though it's a time ago) wish you a happy new year.

Thank you for the huge support

Finally, the case for all the boards and components is ready to be printed. Here're some photos:

Thank you for your support. Next post will be the production of the case.

All my project members and I wish you a merry christmas and a happy new year.

I just bought a Rev Burner Pro from SymProjects to start developing on support for more than 30 PC games.

A list of all supported games can be found here. The board will be the interface between the PC games and the Arduino to convert the data of the PC games into physical/electrical values. This is the board I ordered:

I'll write a compatibility sketch for the Arduino so that any kind of hardware can be used for a speedometer.

For documents on this board, please visit this page.

I'm waiting for the order now to proceed with my project.

Btw - Thank you for 20000 views!!!

First off it's just awesome that the project hits the 20.000 visitors mark. This is overwhelming for me!

I'm desgining a case for the boards and components of the project. The already printed Front Base will be put in front of the open side of the case. The desgin process is still a work in progress.

At the moment it looks like this:

The 3D sketch will be available for download when it's ready.

Thanks for your support!

I figured out that it's not possible to read CAN BUS messages through the OBD-2 Port in a Polo 6R. The OBD-2 Port is connected to a CAN Gateway. In this way OBD-2 Diagnose Adapters sends request to the Gateway with the CAN ID 0x100 and the Gateway answers with ID 0x200.

See this forum thread: http://www.canhack.de/viewtopic.php?t=1193

I tinkered a OBD-2 CAN Adapter and tried to connect it to the Polo 6R, but without success.
