CAN-View
The CAN-View v1, v2, and v3 are MFD Integrated CAN Scanner for the 2nd Generation (2004-2005) Prius. A new more powerful version 4 is now available which uses an external touch screen<ref>VM7000 7" touchscreen at mini-box.com for use with the v4 CAN-View.</ref> so that it can be used in the 2006+ and other CAN enabled Hybrids. It is hoped that the new version will eventually work in vehicles such as the Camry, Highlander, RX 400h, GS 450h, and Ford Escape Hybrid! The CAN-View is used as the Prius PHEV User Interfaces in both the PriusPlus and PiPrius projects. The Official CAN-View Website is http://www.hybridinterfaces.ca. The CAN-View is not compatible with the Classic (2000-2003) Prius, go here for other potential solutions.

- The CAN-View should not be confused with this CANview product (notice no dash in the name), which is a CAN to RS232 device similar to the CAN232 used by Attila Vass with his early My CAN Project.
