DJ Disco in the parking lot
As we gear up for the incoming launch of CAN Opener Cloud, we wanted to share a fun demo showing what's possible with our framework.
In this video, we're running a music visualizer widget on top of the CAN Opener engine. Instead of just displaying the beat visually, the widget actuates the vehicle's headlights in sync with the music.
It's a silly example, but it shows something more important: CAN Opener can interface with vehicle systems in real time through a flexible software layer.
For anyone interested, CAN Opener is a platform for turning modern vehicles into software-defined vehicles. CAN Opener Cloud is part of our broader end-to-end ecosystem, enabling functionality such as:
- Saving, downloading, and sharing DBC/Vehicle Profile files on the cloud repository
- Accessing DBC files through our cloud API
- Viewing telemetry via our Nexus mobile app
- Sending supported control commands via our Nexus mobile app
- Building custom vehicle interfaces and widgets (coming soon)
You can learn more about the project on our GitHub Wiki:
https://github.com/the-can-opener/Wiki
We'll be open-sourcing the ecosystem in July, and we also have an early access program available now. Join our Discord to get involved, test the platform, and follow development:

Would love to hear what people think, especially from anyone working with CAN, DBC files, vehicle telemetry, embedded systems, or software-defined vehicles.
Hard Wired DashCam causing Code U3012
Just a heads up if you have a hardwired dash cam make sure you set the cut off voltage to 12.4 volts, if your battery drops below 12volts your car can get some funky behavior and it can cause you to have code U3012.
