I'm looking at the VDDI-PROG and how it bypasses security mechansisms on many automotive microcontrollers.

After 2 years of hard work, this is the first production batch for the Ultimate-Nag52 #opensource #esp32 powered #mercedes 722.6 gearbox ECU! So proud to finally get these. Thanks to @JLCPCB for the help assembling these! 🎉. Website TBA!

Solar panels make sense on roofs, but do they belong on cars? We drove the Lightyear 0, dubbed the world’s first “solar electric car” to try and find out. thedrive.com/news/do-solar-p…

Do Solar-Powered EVs Make Any Sense? I Drove a Prototype To See How It Could Work

A Dutch startup called Lightyear let us drive a pre-production prototype of its 0 sedan, which is billed as the world's first "solar electric car."

Amazing to see autonomous vehicle code running in a few hundred kilobytes on a @Raspberry_Pi Pico using @TensorFlow Lite Micro: hackster.io/news/deeppicarmi… Awesome work by the KU team, paper is at arxiv.org/abs/2208.11212

DeepPicarMicro Crams NVIDIA's PilotNet Autonomous Vehicle Neural Network Into a Raspberry Pi Pico

Clever optimization approaches take a CNN model designed for high-end GPUs and run it on the low-cost RP2040.

On Saturday, I sat in a crowded ballroom at Caesar's Forum in Vegas and watched @sickcodes jailbreak a John Deere tractor's control unit live, before an audience of cheering @Defcon 30 attendees (and, possibly, a few undercover Deere execs, who often attend Sickcodes's talks). 1/

Last month I did the unthinkable and finally threw out that box of unloved cables that I've dragged with me through adulthood. Today I realised that I needed one of them and have no idea how to find a replacement. CONSIDER THIS A WARNING TO YOU ALL

An intro to my used metric fastener collection. Housed in 11 to 21 year old JustJuice & Freshup 3 litre apple juice bottles that I used to drink a lot of many years ago. Sides 3/4 cut out. Filled with bolts, nuts, and washers of all shapes and sizes. Oh nuts, wash her, MI6, mate!

#CarInABox finally done 🥳 Way more easy to carry, quick to set-up, it's ready to travel to conf. or training, like @hardwear_io USA '22. 🛫 16 ECUs, a raspberry + SDR for C&C, an Arduino Mega and lot of solders. 3 CAN bus, many LIN, a lot of fun for trainings! #CarHacking 📡🚙🔧

Today I discovered that one of my oldest friends, who was at my wedding (photo evidence below) follows my brother @JosephPattonWx on Twitter but doesn't follow me, and I didn't even know he HAD A TWITTER until tonight. 🤯🤯🤯 The world is a weird place, y'all.

These #PCBs are so sexy. I'm so proud of them!...thank you @JLCPCB for your awesome choice of colours 😆! All powered by #esp32!. Hopefully someday I'll port my C++ code base for these transmission controllers to @rustlang 😉

The rebuild is going well. Upper panel ECUs, BCM/ABS/DDM are finished, and a half of the PCM/RCM are wired. Sensors spoofing is done via an Arduino MEGA, a custom shield is pending to display real states. Managing actuators/TPMS will be done w/ a Pi4 & touchscreen. #CarHacking 🚙
