Overview
It is commonly found on modern machine tools and as an automotive diagnostic bus.
Thanks to the CAN-BUS, makers are able to hack their cars!
It adopts MCP2515 CAN-BUS controller with SPI interface and MCP2551 CAN transceiver to give you Arduino CAN-BUS capability. Default pinout is OBD-II and CAN standard pinout can be selected by switching jumpers on DB9 interface.
Moreover, it has the TF card slot for data storage and the CS pin that can be set to D4 or D5.
The INT pin can also be set to D2 or D3 by switching jumpers on the back of the shield.
CAN-BUS Shield Works perfectly with Arduino UNO (ATmega328), Arduino Mega (ATmega1280/2560) as well as Arduino Leonardo (ATmega32U4).

Use an Arduino Nicla Sense ME to see if you need to freshen up after a workout
Having constant, reliable access to a working HVAC system is vital for our way of living, as they provide a steady supply of fresh, conditioned air. In an effort to decrease downtime and maintenance costs from failures, Yunior González and Danelis Guillan have developed a prototype device that aims to leverage edge machine learning to predict issues before they occur. The duo went with a Nicla Sense ME due to its onboard accelerometer, and after collecting many readings from each of the three axes at a 10Hz sampling rate, they imported the data into Edge Impulse to create the model. This time, rather than using a classifier, they utilized a K-means clustering algorithm — which is great at detecting anomalous readings, such as a motor spinning erratically, compared to a steady baseline. Once the Nicla Sense ME had detected an anomaly, it needed a way to send this data somewhere else and generate an alert. González and Guillan's setup accomplishes the goal by connecting a Microchip AVR-IoT Cellular Mini board to the Sense ME along with a screen, and upon receiving a digital signal from the Sense ME, the AVR-IoT Cellular Mini logs a failure in an Azure Cosmos DB instance where it can be viewed later on a web app. To read more about this preventative maintenance project, you can read the pair’s write-up here on Hackster.io.
