This company ( https://tangram.dev ) is a different entity entirely. There is also Tangram Vision ( https://www.tangramvision.com ) which is a startup focused on multi-sensor calibration and sensor-fusion. They have been around since 2020,…

HN discussionI only have experience working in the robotics field as it exists today, so you're right that I am probably unaware of how things are done in the software world. (I mean I read HN so I'm at least somewhat aware, but I don't have first hand experience of it in my work, so maybe I just don't know what I'm missing). So in that sense, I'm rooting for your success in launching this company -- it would help accelerate and…

HN discussionTangram Vision [0] is also a startup and we also use Rust. We're using it to develop robotic / autonomous sensor calibration tools that would normally be written in a variety of C / C++ libraries. For context: most if not all of our team has developed calibration tooling similar to what we're doing now in the past, just at different startups and very specific to certain robotic or sensing configurations.
