Arduino MKR CAN Shield
Need to connect a device to a CAN (Controller Area Network) for communication within an automobile and with other CAN devices? The Arduino MKR CAN shield will provide automotive CAN connectivity.
Overview
With this shield you can easily connect to a CAN (Controller Area Network) Bus. Discover new possibilities of interaction between your Arduino MKR Board and the CAN ecosystem.
The MKR CAN shield can simplify the connection of the MKR boards with industrial systems and especially with automotive applications. This shield opens a new set of possible applications like smart vehicles, autonomous cars and drones. A CAN connection also provides the possibility to connect a MKR board directly with several types of industrial grade sensors, motors and displays.

In this tutorial, I am going to show you guys how to create this Arduino based touchless concrete clock.
The Arduino Nano Every is now available in a 3 and 6 pack - perfect for running a course or powering all your projects with Arduino. For those countless creations requiring a small and easy to use microcontroller board, the Nano Every has the tiniest Arduino form factor out there measuring just 45x18mm. Whether you’re working on a low-cost robotics project for the entire classroom or presenting a complex prototype with many functional blocks, this pack offers exactly what you need - a batch of Nano Every boards at a great price! This robust little board costs as little as €7.50 each ($9.30 each) in the 6 pack, saving €0.50 ($0.60) per board versus the single. It’s now more affordable than ever to forecast the local across town by building your own little band of Gnome Weather Forecasters in your class. Get your Arduino Nano Every - Pack on the Arduino online store!
