Tinkerboard 3N CAN bus for Android

[lloydhussell 0]

I would like to buy the Tinkerboard 3N for its CANbus capabilities. But I can't find the Mraa lib files for the 3N which include CAN bus interfaces. Can I please have some link to such source code?

Thanks.

hello @lloydhussell, 

you can use can-utils with android userdebug build for tinker board 3n

Can you provide a link to the userdebug build for the tinkerboard 3n, please? 

And is there not a release build that we can use with CAN? This is to be used in commercially available products.

hello @lloydhussell, 

here a link of the latest android release for tinker 3n: Tinker Board 3N Android 12 V.1.0.14

Hello. It has been a while, but I am soon to purchase the 3N. But I need a better understanding of how to utilise CAN. I don't see what you mean by can-utils. 
Prior to this, I have always used libmraa for UART comm on my tinkerboard 2.

Is the can-utils even available on the Android build?

it's supported on android debug build, it's not available on user build

Will you make it available on user build? This is very important for the application, because many animations in Android perform worse in debug builds, and this is immediately obvious.
