    I want to make this happen ! Do you know of any good robotics framework in Rust, as of today ? I heard that ROS2 was slowly including Rust [1], not sure at how did it go. Ros would be a good entry door to sensor fusion, mapping and localization. Because all of the hardware integration / abstraction is already done (in C++). I'm curious to know if company are using this.

    The rosrust crate is for ROS1. You either want to switch to that instead or use a crate meant for ROS2 (I think the main crate for that is ros2_rust).

    You can also check https://github.com/sequenceplanner/r2r for ROS2 bindings (using in production at work for a couple of ROS nodes).

    But TBH, in a Rust world, it’s worth revisiting the assumptions behind the ROS node architecture, since Rust is so strong at scaling to large monolithic applications (due to the strict hierarchical code patterns it encourages).

    A transitional Rust approach, that doesn't try to reimplement everything from scratch, could do something like a strangler pattern: Take each ROS node, run them separately in “jails” with a Rust API around each one, then implement the plumbing/management logic in pure Rust.

    Nice to see async support! I've been following along with r2r which seems further along (action, parameter support), which has been converted to async-only a while ago. However, it hasn't seen activity since February,

    ros2 bindings (not the one you get as the first search result, ros2_rust) are far nicer than ros1 ones, mostly because ros2's design of having one library (rcl) designed for bindings is far better. This one even has full async/await support, and because of Rust's flexible design for that, rcl's runtime is plugged into Rust's so it's really efficient.
