Overviewβ
In this project, I developed a QT C++ application to create a smart dashboard for an electric kart. The system gathers real-time data from the Curtis AC F2-A motor controller and the Battery Management System (BMS) using PeakCAN and displays it on a custom driver interface.
This smart cluster provides essential motor and battery telemetry, including:
- Speed, RPM, and torque output from the Curtis AC F2-A controller
- Battery voltage, current, and temperature from the BMS
- Error codes and system diagnostics for real-time monitoring
The interface is built using Qt and QML, ensuring a modern and responsive display optimized for high-speed karting. By leveraging PeakCAN, the system efficiently communicates with the motor controller and BMS over CAN bus, ensuring low-latency and high-accuracy data visualization.
This project enhances the electric karting experience by providing drivers with critical performance insights in real time.
