From the project
Sixth version of the M4 Feather CAN Express carrier board. Hopefully, "the last".
The promise of the platform isn't that one can hook a single sensor to the platform and send the sendor value over CAN. There are many examples of awesome dedicated circuits that perform functions like these that would result in a smaller solution (e.g. Grapple Robotics LaserCAN is a CAN-connected Time-of-Flight sensor). Rather, the platform enables creative combination of sensors and application-specific processing in an off-roboRIO accelerator. Moreover, the platform provides a great opportunity to start an embedded journey.
