OBD Display (2024 experiments)
Leftovers of the earlier attempt to show car speed from an ELM327 on the JC3636W518.
The 2024 design needed a second (classic) ESP32 as a Bluetooth-Classic → WiFi bridge; that bridge, the ELMulator
and the WiFi speed sketch were removed on 2026-10-23 (still in git history) — the ELM327 is now read directly over BLE,
see ../12-OBD-Speed.
