Torque Vectoring UI (Linux)

Minimal steps to run the UI on a Linux machine with a USB-to-CAN adapter.

Setup

# 1) Create and activate a virtual env
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate

# 2) Install Python dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

Bring up CAN (SocketCAN can0)

# Requires sudo; adjusts to the last ttyACM* seen by dmesg
sudo bash setup_can_usb.sh

If you prefer manual setup, ensure can0 exists and is up (e.g., sudo ip link set can0 up type can bitrate 1000000).

Run the UI

source .venv/bin/activate
python torque_vectoring_ui.py

Notes

• DBC sending is enabled when a DBC file is loaded; cantools is already in requirements.
• If no CAN hardware is connected, the app will show "CAN Disconnected" and skip sending; you can still explore the UI.
• Adjust the CAN channel/interface in torque_vectoring_ui.py if your setup differs (e.g., non-can0 name).
