adaptronics :
Development and use of new "activatable" materials and control devices, which should create a new class of mechatronic systems capable of adapting in real time to the environment and variable operating conditions.
CAN (Controller Area Network) bus :
Serial communication medium that supports real-time embedded systems with a high level of reliability. Applications range from medium-speed networks to low-cost multiplexing networks. Above all, it belongs to the category of field networks used in industry.
Since the 1960s, the length of cable used in the automotive industry has grown steadily, exceeding 2,000 m in 1995, and reaching 1,800 connections by the same date. Reliability and safety are under threat. At the same time, pollution and energy consumption standards were forcing...
