Thursday, September 4 (Conf Day 2)
2:10 pm to 3:10 pm
To the Stratosphere and Beyond: Rust at 100,000ft
Drawing from a high-altitude balloon case study, along with some key comparisons to the kind of Arduino programs that are the default for student experiments, this talk will make the argument that Rust is now perfectly positioned for the kind of microcontroller code common in education contexts. This talk will be relevant to anyone exploring or teaching microcontroller programming, especially those with some exposure to the Arduino Framework, along with anyone interested in exploring Rust in a context they might not be familiar with.
