Hi,
I’m looking to use the VIM3 as a building block for a robotics project and need to use the CAN bus. Are there some examples as to how to wire up the VIM3 along with some sample python code ?

Vim3 doesn’t have a CAN interface - suggest you use something like SPI to CAN interface chip? E.g. https://www.microchip.com/wwwproducts/en/MCP2518FD
