The application is a bit difference due to the latency requirements, but
we did use a CAN-based distributed architecture for a robotics project
we did for NASA last year. It worked pretty darned well for application,
but I don't know if the latency was short enough for rocket applications
(ie for TVC or throttling).

I want/will have to delve into CAN ( via its bastard child NMEA2000 )
this spring.
target platform is a raspi + SCI attached CAN controllerboard. both cheap. When I've got the linux stuff with CANnet running I have an entry enabler.
CAN is by far not as ubiquitous as Ethernet is for easy access.

well, with CAN as network device I don't start at zero.
