Zombieverter: Open source VCU for reusing salvage EV components

ZombieVerter VCU board An open-source EV conversion VCU (vehicle control unit) for controlling salvaged EV components! Introduction Modern EV conversion projects often look to reuse salvaged parts from wrecked vehicles, such as the motors, batteries and chargers. The issue is that each of these components and manufacturers, use different methods of control and communication. Developing controllers for these devices is complex, and time consuming and often require very dedicated communication protocols. Instead of making custom boards for every part that's been decoded, why not just make a general purpose VCU (vehicle control unit) with a verity of different types of inputs and outputs? Introducing: the "ZombieVerter" VCU - a general purpose EV conversion VCU. With a large array of inputs/outputs, control logic, and a web interface for configuration and data logging. The ZombieVerter is a powerful, flexible and customizable VCU well suited for EV conversions. It's also an open s ... Read full article.
