I am using a simple application named “Car Scanner”, on my phone, it connects via bluetooth to the $4 OBD2 dongle, and it works in Android Auto, can display all kind of info on the multimedia screen.
Right, but that dongle is connected to the CAN bus directly right? I was wondering what is accessible over just the smartphone integrations (CarPlay and Android Auto).
What car sensors are normally accessible to CarPlay and Android Auto, and what are they used for?
My car doesn’t expose any car features or sensors to CarPlay at all. I just use the connected display for maps and playing audio.
Could you link the RPi projects that you’ve seen? Sounds interesting.
Here is one example: https://github.com/opencardev/crankshaft/wiki/Getting-started-with-Crankshaft
Thanks

Hopefully not much.
I guess nothing is accessible directly
