Is Rust Programming ready for embedded development?
- 1. Rust Embedded Presented By: Nitin Saxena Software Consultant Knoldus Inc.

- 4. Introduction ● Nowadays we all are surrounded by the small system which is making our day to day life easy and better. ● We are going to talk about this small system known as Embedded System and how Rust Programming is taking it further. ● Software embedded inside the small computer and this small computer perform multiple functions using its components. This whole system is an Embedded System. ● We will also work with hardware(microcontroller) with a Demo at last. LEARN NOW
- 5. c Rust Embedded System? Rust is a programming language but not like other languages like java python etc. The difference is rust is a system programming language, not an application whose syntax is much similar to c++ but guarantees more safety than this. LEARN NOW We are going to program our hardware using Rust Programming Language as we have multiple reasons for that - 1. Safety 2.Rust Community support. 3. Control over memory and performance. Why Rust for Embedded?
- 6. OUR MISSION An Embedded System is a microcontroller or microprocessor-based computer system that is used to perform certain specific operations or tasks. It can also be called as a computer hardware system which do have software embedded in it. What is an Embedded System??

- 8. c Where we use Embedded System? ● If you look around yourself you are all around with embedded systems. ● Modern cars. ● Mobile phones. ● Medical ● Gaming ● Sensors
- 10. www.website.com What is an Microcontroller? Microcontroller A Micro-controller is considered a small computer or semi-computer that is used to perform some specific task of an embedded system. It is present on a single metal-oxide-semiconductor integrated circuit chip as shown below. So we are going to work on this particular micro-controller. STM32F303VCT6 DISCOVERY Board commonly known as F3.

- 12. Now it’s time for the LEDs Game
- 13. Crates to use for LED Demo To work on the hardware we need to know about the crates we are going to use. These are the crates we have to include in our Cargo.toml. ● cortex-m ● cortex-m-rt ● panic-hal ● stm32f30x-hal

- 16. Great Product! Lorem ipsum Great collection of slides easy to edit. Great collection of slides Great Slides Access the LEDs Pin’s on Port E ● To “on” the LED we have to access the pin of that particular LED. ● There are multiple ports and we can find about the port contains board LEDs from Board’s Manual. ● Port- E for stm32f3-Discovery Board. Access port e using “gpio” peripheral. ● Blink LED by providing register for mode(push/pull) and for output type(input/output)

- 18. OUR MISSION ● I mentioned that the STM32F3DISCOVERY actually has two microcontrollers. a. ST-LINK as programmer/debugger b. This ST-LINK is connected to the target microcontroller using a Serial Wire Debug (SWD) interface. ● As for OpenOCD, it's software that provides some services like a GDB server on top of USB devices OpenOcd & GDB Server
- 20. www.website.com Business Perspective ● Rust has been building up momentum. More and more organisations are looking to make use of it (including Microsoft). Several organisations in the embedded space are already using Rust. ● Rust takes the good parts of C and C++, and programming practices that enable good quality code and bakes it in from the outset. ● Rust also avoids bugs. Bugs like Memory Bugs and Concurrency Bugs. Which makes our program more better.
