The '''OVMS''' ('''Open Vehicle Monitoring System''') allows a user to connect to the [[CAN bus]] in a vehicle so that the user can view and monitor several parameters of vehicle operation, such as state of [[Battery (electricity)|battery]] charge for an [[electric vehicle]]. The system includes hardware (a board that connects to the vehicle), a [[Server (computing)|server]], and mobile device software. Early work on this system was done by enthusiasts of the [[Tesla Roadster (2008)|Tesla Roadster]]; the system is also being adapted for use with the [[Nissan LEAF]], [[Chevrolet Volt]] / Opel Ampera, [[Renault Twizy]], [[Think City]], [[Tazzari Zero]], [[Mitsubishi i-MiEV]] and Kyburz and has a Generic OBDII module.
