In this episode of The Electropages Podcast, host Robin Mitchell interviews Rodney Dowdall, VP of R&D at TeleCANesis. Rodney explains how TeleCANesis helps engineers connect CAN, Modbus, ISOBUS, EtherCAT, MQTT, JSON, and other protocols through a configurable middleware stack designed to reduce repetitive code changes and simplify embedded data handling.
The conversation covers how TeleCANesis was built around a real engineering problem: data formats, CAN messages, DBC files, and sensor interfaces keep changing, forcing developers to rewrite and revalidate code. Rodney explains how a configuration-led approach can help engineers update message handling without changing core software, reducing the risk, time, and certification burden that often comes with embedded development.
Engineers will also hear a wider discussion on AI-assisted coding, deterministic software, safety certification, human-in-the-loop development, and why "vibe coding" may suit some applications but not safety-critical embedded systems. This episode provides a practical look at how middleware, tooling, and protocol abstraction can make connected devices easier to build, maintain, and scale.
