openpilot is an open source driver assistance system. openpilot performs the functions of Automated Lane Centering and Adaptive Cruise Control for over 200 supported car makes and models.
You can not select more than 25 topicsTopics must start with a letter or number, can include dashes ('-') and can be up to 35 characters long.
It supports 3x CAN, 2x LIN, and 1x GMLAN. It also charges a phone. On the computer side, it has both USB and Wi-Fi.
It uses an [STM32F413](http://www.st.com/en/microcontrollers/stm32f413-423.html?querycriteria=productId=LN2004) for low level stuff and an [ESP8266](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ESP8266) for Wi-Fi. They are connected over high speed SPI, so the panda is actually capable of dumping the full contents of the busses over Wi-Fi, unlike every other dongle on amazon. ELM327 is weak, panda is strong.
It is 2nd gen hardware, reusing code and parts from the [NEO](https://github.com/commaai/neo) interface board.
When a panda powers up, by default it's in `SAFETY_NOOUTPUT` mode. While in no output mode, the buses are also forced to be silent. In order to send messages, you have to select a safety mode. Currently, setting safety modes is only supported over USB.
Safety modes optionally supports `controls_allowed`, which allows or blocks a subset of messages based on a customizable state in the board.
Code Rigor
------
When compiled from an [EON Dev Kit](https://comma.ai/shop/products/eon-gold-dashcam-devkit), the panda FW is configured and optimized (at compile time) for its use in
conjuction with [openpilot](https://github.com/commaai/openpilot). The panda FW, through its safety model, provides and enforces the
[openpilot Safety](https://github.com/commaai/openpilot/blob/devel/SAFETY.md). Due to its critical function, it's important that the application code rigor within the `board` folder is held to high standards.
These are the [CI regression tests](https://circleci.com/gh/commaai/panda) we have in place:
* A generic static code analysis is performed by [Cppcheck](https://github.com/danmar/cppcheck/).
* In addition, [Cppcheck](https://github.com/danmar/cppcheck/) has a specific addon to check for [MISRA C:2012](https://www.misra.org.uk/MISRAHome/MISRAC2012/tabid/196/Default.aspx) violations. See [current coverage](https://github.com/commaai/panda/blob/master/tests/misra/coverage_table).
* Compiler options are relatively strict: the flags `-Wall -Wextra -Wstrict-prototypes -Werror` are enforced on board and pedal makefiles.
* The [safety logic](https://github.com/commaai/panda/tree/master/board/safety) is tested and verified by [unit tests](https://github.com/commaai/panda/tree/master/tests/safety) for each supported car variant.
* A recorded drive for each supported car variant is [replayed through the safety logic](https://github.com/commaai/panda/tree/master/tests/safety_replay)
to ensure that the behavior remains unchanged.
* An internal Hardware-in-the-loop test, which currently only runs on pull requests opened by comma.ai's organization members, verifies the following functionalities:
* compiling the code in various configuration and flashing it both through USB and WiFi.
* Receiving, sending and forwarding CAN messages on all buses, over USB and WiFi.
