In a support question today I got to know the python-can package which I was not aware of. This is a package for Python developers python-can wanting to work with CAN. The package supports CANAL but unfortunately the CANAL interface is named “USB2CAN“, which disappoints me a bit, but at least it’s there.
So all drivers here should work with Python now.
Interesting for VSCP‘ers can the remote interface of the package be. Here you can set up a lightweight connection to a CAN4VSCP bus (CAN bus) and feed it over TCP/IP to a VSCP daemon or some other thing. Perfect for use on small Linux boards where the full VSCP daemon is too much.

Quite good actually!
Introducing The Lake Erie Mamba: a Reconfigurable Robot SnakeThis versatile reptile is made with off-the-shelf parts and is capable of several different modes of locomotion, including slithering, inch worm, sidewinding and rolling. (The rolling configuration involves the snake curling itself into a vertical loop and rolling like a wheel. See the last section in the video above.) The snake contains 12 segments actuated by servo motors and joined with metal brackets. The servos are controlled by an Arduino Mega and powered by a 7.4 volt battery pack. A four button keyfob transmitter provides remote control for the snake. The snake is also capable of autonomous movement. Such a robot can be constructed with many different types of servos and brackets. If you decide to give one a try, I hope you find the code given below to be useful.
Anders Forsgren today sponsored the project with an Android phone. This will help us a lot to work on the ux.
Many thanks to you Anders.
The VSCP sites was closed by the service provider (City Networks AB) due to a debt of EUR 27. This is getting harder and harder… They where right of course. The fault was entirely mine but I just did not have the money. Open Source isn’t always that easy.
But up now again (I sold my guitar). Sorry for this.
Cheers

Many industry pundits are asking for protocol standardization But if there are so many protocols for the web, why wouldn’t there be just as many for the IoT?
