Publishing autopilot on-board sensor data to CAN bus

Hardware CAN Devices

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if it’s possible to publish data from an autopilot’s on-board sensors such as IMU, Barometer, Magnetometer, etc. to the CAN bus via one of the CAN protocols?

Thanks!

I think there is the possibility to run AP_Periph (instead of Ardu*) in a flight controller, and that would spit out all the sensor data to the CAN bus.

See https://github.com/ArduPilot/ardupilot/tree/master/Tools/AP_Periph but I think the readme is outdated and pixhawk is supported
