Module B4: Async on embedded
Using Embassy, we can run asynchronous Rust code on embedded devices. In this exercise, we'll give Embassy a try.
B4 Async LIS3DH ID
Just like in exercise B1, we will extract the ID register value from the LIS3DH. This time, though, we'll use Embassy to
do this asyncronously. Open exercises/B4, examine the code in src/main.rs and run it.
This code requires the use of the nightly compiler.
This should be downloaded automatically due to the rust-toolchain.toml file.
You can install and use the toolchain easily by running:
rustup toolchain install nightly
cargo +nightly build
If you don't want to provide the +nightly every time, we can make it the default:
rustup default nightly

You can try getting the lis3dh to work in embassy with this driver: https://crates.io/crates/lis3dh-async
