With over thirty years of specialization in Controller Area Network (CAN) technology, Kvaser delivers tools and software platforms that connect engineers to their systems with precision, reliability, and speed. From our roots as CAN pioneers in Sweden, we’ve grown into a global developer of cross-platform communication interfaces, SDKs, and software tools that make it easier for engineers to build, test, and deploy intelligent embedded systems. Our mission: to advance connectivity and open new possibilities for those designing the next generation of machines and devices.

At Kvaser, hardware and software work hand in hand, but software drives everything we do. Our unified API provides a consistent programming interface across all Kvaser devices, minimizing integration time and enabling code reuse. The Kvaser SDK, available for Windows, Linux, and macOS, gives developers the building blocks to create custom applications for CAN, CAN FD, and LIN. It supports multiple programming languages, including C, C++, C#, and Python, with clear documentation, examples, and open-source resources to speed development.

Complementing our SDK, Kvaser CanKing is a free and powerful CAN bus monitor and analysis tool used by developers worldwide to visualize traffic, test configurations, and build custom workflows. Its modular design supports extensions, enabling Kvaser and third-party developers to add features and create a flexible platform for experimentation and integration.
