This session will demonstrate the working in embedded development using Rust

1. Presented By: Nitin Saxena
(Software Consultant)
Play with Gyroscope
(RUST Embedded)

2. Lack of etiquette and manners is a huge turn off.

3. 01 Introduction
02 Rust? Why Rust for
Embedded?
03 What is an Embedded
System
04 STM32F3-Discovery
Board & it’s crates
05 Demo on Gyroscope
Sensor
Our Agenda

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 system known as
Embedded System
● We will also work with hardware(microcontroller) with
a Demo at last.

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. 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.

Where we use
Embedded
System?
● If you look around yourself
you are all around with
embedded systems.
● Modern cars.
● Mobile phones.
● Medical
● Gaming
● Sensors

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.

11. 01 A microcontroller
02 A number of LED’s, including the eight
aligned in a “compass” formation
03 Two buttons
04 Two USB ports
05 Sensors(Accelerometer, Magnetometer,
Gyroscope)
Components on the Discovery Board

12. Now it’s time for the
Sensor Game

13. Which Sensor??
This Demo is going to provide us the way to use stm32f3 Board as gyroscope and will
provide us the readings of this sensor.
Gyroscope Sensor
A gyroscope is a device used for measuring or maintaining orientation and angular velocity. It is a spinning
wheel or disc in which the axis of rotation (spin axis) is free to assume any orientation by itself.
When rotating, the orientation of this axis is unaffected by tilting or rotation of the mounting, according to the
conservation of angular momentum

14. Great

15. 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

exciting Demo

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.
