Raspberry Pi Reading Car Diagnostics (OBD-II) Data

I never cease to admire the utilities that people find to this board. I sincerely encouraged to find links for you every day like this that I present below.

I have been surprised this morning when I saw as buying an adapter for less than $25, you can diagnose your vehicle and receive information directly in your Raspi.


ODBopen in new window is a communication standard for reading data from your vehicle if it is relatively new.

Our friend Martin O'Hanlon has developed a GUI to read data through this adapter in Python called pyodb.

I hope someone is encouraged to try.
