SAE J1939 development has evolved far beyond traditional automotive Electronic Control Units (ECUs). Today, engineers can build J1939-enabled systems using low-cost embedded platforms such as the ESP32 and the Raspberry Pi. While both platforms can successfully communicate on a J1939 network, they serve very different purposes. The question is not…
