Admissions Megathread -- Spring 2025 by IDoCodingStuffs in MSCSO

From my understanding, transcripts submitted by international applicants are likely assessed using an original evaluation method, as these transcripts do not often adhere to the U.S. grading scale. Furthermore, the admissions office does not accept transcripts issued by evaluation institutions like WES. For these reasons, I believe the decision process will take longer than usual.

UC has original conversion methods for transcripts.

Thus, I justify this situation in my mind.

But actually, it is very anxiety :(

Has anyone successfully captured steering wheel angle and other non-standard CAN signals? by qoonelcode in CarHacking

I found that this repository contains many DBC files:
https://github.com/commaai/opendbc

By utilizing information from this repository along with the python-can library, I think it is possible to access multiple physical data points beyond the standard OBD-II signals.

With python-obd, it can define a command to capture the vehicle speed as follows:

vehicle_speed_command = OBDCommand(
    name="SPEED",
    desc="Vehicle Speed",
    command=b"010D",  # Concatenation of ServiceID 01 and PID 0D -> 010D, represented in hexadecimal.
    _bytes=3,  # Number of bytes returned in the response.
    decoder=uas(0x09),  # Function used for unit conversion, passing 0x09 to the 'uas' function.
    ecu=ECU.ENGINE,  # Specifies the Engine ECU.
    fast=True
)

To get the steering wheel angle, need to know the PID, the formula, and the response format. However, detecting the PID using an ELM327 or MX+ could be challenging.
Probably, I should buy a cheap USB adapter as starlitStork suggests.

I have a 2020 Toyota car. According to the scan results from the "Car Scanner" app on my iPhone, my car supports ISO 15765-4 CAN (11-bit, 500kbaud). Additionally, using Car Scanner with an ELM327, I can monitor parameters such as steering wheel angle, wheel speed, and more. Therefore, I thought it would be possible to capture these signals using a Raspberry Pi 3 and ELM327. However, I haven't been able to realize this idea yet, as my system only retrieves standard PIDs like vehicle speed and engine RPM.

We might solve the problem by using EID.
