It is an Arduino based CAN-Bus system for controlling Automotive Dashboard Instrument Clusters. This version is ready to interface with a 2007-2009 Ford Mustang (six gauge) instrument cluster. Adaptation to other CAN-Bus controlled dashboards should be possible by end-user development of the Arduino firmware.\n\n![mustangcluster275](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/10354989/50655679-b7a95a00-0f45-11e9-8c29-e3e9a20487e5.jpg)\n\n### The CAN2Cluster Team Contributors\n* Thomas B. (@thomastech, Project Creator)\n* YOUR Name Here. Contribute to the project and join the cluster hacking team.\n\n### Basic Hardware Summary\n* Arduino MEGA2560 R3.\n* MCP2515/TJA1050 CAN-Bus Modules (2 pcs, for HS \u0026 MS CAN-Bus Ports).\n* See [PartsList.md](/PartsList.md) for more details.\n\n### Project Description\nCAN2Cluster is a interactive desktop display that is best described as a car lover's art piece. It uses a Ford Mustang instrument cluster that has a two channel CAN-Bus communication port for control. Low cost Arduino hardware with CAN-Bus is used to animate the instrument cluster's gauges and warning lights.  \n\nThere's some interesting features too. An MP3 Audio Player is used to create the sounds of a revving V8 motor that is synced to the dashboard's gauges and indicator lights.\n\nFor realism, an automobile ignition key is used to \"start\" the engine. There's also a hand-held IR remote that can control a dozen different functions. Plus serial terminal host access allows the user to manually control the gauges and indicators.\n\nThe Arduino code could be adapted by the end-user to support a variety of applications. For example:\n- Automobile Instrument Cluster Tester.\n- Animated dashboard display for education, art, or entertainment.\n- Dashboard for Race Gaming Cockpit.\n\n### Project Blog\nBuild information can be found in the Mustang Instrument Cluster Project blog (pdf file). Please see the [Mustang_Cluster_Build_Log.pdf](https://github.com/thomastech/CAN2Cluster/raw/master/Mustang_Cluster_Build_Log.pdf) file.\n\n### 3D Printed Parts\nThere are several 3D printed parts used in the display piece. The STL files for these parts are available in the [STL_3D-Print_Files.zip](/STL_3D-Print_Files.zip) package. The file names hint at the part's description. Assembly instructions are not available, so use at your own discretion.\n\n### Video Demos\n**Introduction Video**  \n\u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded\u0026v=fxD2akmYyDo\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/10354989/52005499-b274f780-247e-11e9-9ec1-4138c7d364f1.jpg\" \nalt=\"CAN2Cluster Project Introduction\" width=\"300\" height=\"180\" border=\"10\" /\u003e\u003c/a\u003e  \n  \n**Demo (Part 1) Video**  \n\u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded\u0026v=_LOL9bgKsqw\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/10354989/52673931-f3d1c200-2ed6-11e9-90a9-8ee6e713147f.jpg\" \nalt=\"CAN2Cluster Demo Part 1\" width=\"300\" height=\"265\" border=\"10\" /\u003e\u003c/a\u003e  \n\n**Demo (Part 2) Video**  \n\u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded\u0026v=28geXSEA8To\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/10354989/52752353-50041700-2fa7-11e9-8752-6c89d31de9b9.jpg\" \nalt=\"CAN2Cluster Demo Part 1\" width=\"300\" height=\"229\" border=\"10\" /\u003e\u003c/a\u003e  \n\n### Resources\nSourceforge Ford CAN-Bus: https://sourceforge.net/p/ecu/wiki/canbus/  \n### Alternate Search Terms:\nCANBus, CANBuss, CAN-Buss, OBD, OBD2, OBDII\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fthomastech%2FCAN2Cluster","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fthomastech%2FCAN2Cluster","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fthomastech%2FCAN2Cluster/lists"}
