AIM SmartyCam CAN

Introduction

This CAN bus integration maps CAN bus data from AIM systems normally directed to AIM's SmartyCam camera system.

Since the SmartyCam protocol is standard across AIM products, connecting RaceCapture/Pro to the CAN interface of an AIM product compatible with SmartyCam, communications can be intercepted and data can be mapped to RaceCapture/Pro telemetry channels.
