New · ANCIT's First Basic ADAS Kit

SmartWheels ADAS Kit

See the road ahead, in 360°.

Give a vehicle or robot platform its eyes. The kit pairs a smart camera with a 360° laser scanner and puts what they see on one standard vehicle network (CAN). One PC tool, SmartWheels ADASview, shows it all live. Radar is coming next.

What You Get

Two sensors on one CAN network, one PC tool to see and check everything, and radar to follow.

1
Vision
Smart Camera
  • Spots people, cars, bikes, buses and dozens more everyday objects in real time
  • Reports what each object is, how sure it is and where it sits in the picture
  • Switch object types on or off and tune detection sensitivity over CAN
  • Load a different detection model, such as a face detector; the old one is backed up
  • Reports when it goes quiet instead of guessing
2
Ranging
360° Laser Scanner
  • Scans all the way around, about 10 times every second
  • Measures distance out to 10 metres in small angle steps
  • Tells apart "very close", "nothing detected" and "clear"
  • Missing data is never passed off as an empty road
  • Start, stop and set its speed from the PC
3
PC Software
SmartWheels ADASview
  • Live 360° map of what the scanner sees
  • Live camera view with a box and label on every object
  • Built-in health checks for lost, late or wrong data
  • Record and replay any run for testing and demos
  • Network trace of every message on the bus
4
Coming Soon
Radar
  • Joins the kit next
  • Plugs into the same CAN network as the other sensors
  • The kit grows without a redesign
SmartWheels ADASview — camera, lidar, live validation

One Screen for Everything

ADASview shows what the sensors see and checks that every message arrived clean. It only sends a command when you press a button.

ADASview Lidar tab: live 360° map with scan health checks
Lidar view

Live 360° map

Every scan is drawn as it arrives, with range rings and the nearest object called out. Beside the map, ADASview checks the scan itself, so a clean picture really means clean data.

  • Scan rate and complete-scan percentage
  • Gaps, duplicates, out-of-order frames and timeouts
  • Scanner node state, faults and speed trim
  • Run, stop and set the target scan rate
ADASview Camera tab: detected objects with labels and confidence
Camera view

Every object, boxed and labelled

Detections from the camera are drawn on the picture with their label and confidence. The panel shows the camera's health, the frames received and each detection in the newest frame.

  • Choose which object classes the camera reports
  • Set confidence and overlap (IoU) thresholds
  • Frame rate, frame age and lost-frame checks
  • Load a new detection model from the tool
ADASview CAN Trace tab: decoded messages and signal descriptions
CAN trace

Every message, decoded

See each message on the bus with its signals already decoded from the kit's DBC file, along with a plain description of what each signal means. View the latest value per ID or the full stream.

  • Latest-per-ID and stream views
  • Decoded values with units and descriptions
  • Filter by message ID, pause and clear
  • Record and replay runs for testing and demos

How It Connects

Each sensor has its own automotive-grade controller and talks on the standard CAN bus. Anything that reads CAN can listen in.

Fits Into Your Vehicle Architecture

The kit speaks plain CAN, so it joins the controllers and tools you already use. Nothing about it is tied to one brand of computer.

High-Performance Computers (HPCs)

Feed your ADAS or autonomy computer the camera objects and 360° distances over CAN. Fuse them with its own sensors, or use them as an independent second view of the scene.

Vehicle Control Units (VCUs)

A VCU can read the sensors directly to slow down, stop or warn when something is close. Stale or missing readings are flagged, so lost data is never mistaken for a clear road.

Gateways

Pass the sensor messages on to Ethernet or another CAN bus and filter what each network needs. The sensors keep their own bus, so the rest of the vehicle stays untouched.

Loggers, Displays & Test Benches

Data loggers, telematics units, displays, test benches and simulators that read CAN can all listen in at no cost to the sensors.

Your Own Software

The DBC file describes every message, signal, scale and unit. Import it into your CAN tools or code generator and decoding is done, with no reverse engineering.

Commands Stay in Your Hands

Start / stop, target speed, object selection and sensitivity are ordinary CAN messages, each acknowledged. Send them from your controller or leave them to ADASview.

1
Wire it to the CAN bus

Connect the kit at 500 kbit/s.

2
Import the DBC file

Into your controller, gateway or CAN tool.

3
Read the messages you need

ADASview can run alongside on the same bus to check everything arrives clean.

Why It Is Easy to Build On

The SmartWheels ADAS Kit is built so your team can use the sensor data from day one, and trust it.

Designed in India for the World
Part of SmartWheels, India's own Open ECU family. The kit uses the same standard CAN and DBC approach as the rest of the SmartWheels range.
Standard CAN Network

Each sensor talks over the common automotive bus at 500 kbit/s, so the kit connects to a vehicle controller, a gateway or a PC with no special hardware.

Clearly Documented Messages

Every message is described in a standard database (DBC) file, so your team can use the data straight away.

One Sensor, One Small Controller

Each sensor has its own automotive-grade controller. Add or swap a sensor without disturbing the others.

Built for Testing

Health checks, logs and replay come with the kit. If anything is lost, late or wrong, ADASview tells you.

Ideal For

From the first ADAS lab to vehicle prototypes: real sensors, real CAN data, and a tool that shows when the data can be trusted.
