The breakthrough Sonair 3D ultrasonic sensor is being developed using the open-source programming language Rust. Sonair aims to be among the first to deploy a safety-certified Rust implementation, reshaping how autonomous robots interact with the world. Rust was chosen for its speed, safety, and power, pushing the team towards correct coding practices. The language’s ecosystem includes “crates” for easy application customizations and peripheral access, making development efficient and reliable. While certifications in Rust pose challenges, Sonair believes in the language’s potential to become a strong player in embedded and safety-certified systems. Dive into the world of Rust with Sonair as they pioneer the way forward.
