Building a 3D safety sensor with Rust


Grab your biggest mug of coffee and learn how the open-source programming language Rust supercharges our development time of the breakthrough Sonair 3D ultrasonic sensor. Claim to fame: Sonair is on track to be among the first to deploy a safety-certified Rust implementation.

In this deep-dive article, we’ll take you behind the scenes of our development journey, sharing how we’re using Rust to accelerate Sonair’s innovation, tackle complex challenges, and set a new standard for functional safety in embedded systems. At the same time, Rust’s type system, along with its opinionated borrow checker and enforced memory constraints, pushes you toward a design that forces you to make the right decisions from the start.
