oc2 VS atsamd

There's OpenComputers II for 1.18.2, but unfortunately it appears to have been "abandoned".

There is this mod called OpenComputers II, which is a spiritual successor of the original OpenComputers mod but for newer versions of Minecraft. OpenComputers II uses a library mod called Sedna to emulate a RISC-V CPU within Minecraft and run an actual Linux virtual machine inside the game. Well recently, Android has announced that they are adding support for the RISC-V architecture. Considering the fact that Android uses the Linux kernel (or at least a modified version of it), along with it being able to run Minecraft Bedrock natively (as we all know), running actual Minecraft in Minecraft might not be as far off as we think.

Hey pal, Open computers II

I've seen a few rust projects compiling for this RISC-V emulator inside Minecraft: https://github.com/fnuecke/oc2

Support for Open Computers 2 exposing everything that we expose to CC: Tweaked (minus the utility methods to convert between energy types)

The OC dev is developing OC2 for 1.16.5 and newer.

Waiting for this to get pushed through. https://github.com/fnuecke/oc2/pull/58

It’s definitely used for “nonsafety” stuff like infotainment. The ATSAMD HAL/PACs are probably the most complete embedded microcontroller family as far as Rust support goes, and that’s a part with heavy intent toward automotive use.

The Rust ATSAMD community has been very helpful getting me going. I've really become fond of RTIC as a way to get a little structure in my programs.

The atsamd-rs rust folks (https://github.com/atsamd-rs/atsamd) have made this way easier! Check out my top level comment!

I'm obviously biased, but as a starting point I would recommend getting an Arduino and following the process in the article. Once you have a blinking LED, try it again using a HAL like atsamd-rs/atsamd. Then try making it more complex: configure the clock and replace the delay implementation with something that takes a proper duration argument, add serial IO via the USB port so you can communicate with your program as it runs, connect some more LEDs or buttons and interact with them, or make some network requests.

The embedded-hal project supplies these for a wide variety of controllers, for SAMD specifically, https://github.com/atsamd-rs/atsamd .

No love for Microchip nee Atmel? https://github.com/atsamd-rs/atsamd

Am admittedly too inexperienced to properly weigh the pros and cons of various platforms, but I find the Rust support for certain embedded platforms to be particularly compelling.

I have at least managed to get some literal blinkenlights doing what I want on various Adafruit boards with very little effort.
