Rust powers eric park's graduation cap

Eric Park built a graduation cap that runs Rust, as detailed in his blog post [ericswpark]. The project uses Rust to control the cap's functions, demonstrating the language's feasibility in small-scale, resource-constrained devices. The code is available on Park's website [ericswpark].

Park's graduation cap contributes to the expanding ecosystem of Rust-based embedded systems. This project serves as a practical example of Rust's applications, making it a valuable resource for students and educators looking to explore the language. For instance, the cap's custom-built embedded system showcases Rust's potential in non-traditional applications, such as wearable devices or interactive installations [ericswpark].
