Accomplishing the Impossible with LUTs

Explore the power of lookup tables (LUTs) in microcontroller projects through this 31-minute Hackaday conference talk by Charles Lohr. Discover how to tackle complex problems and achieve seemingly impossible feats with small processors by reformulating challenges using LUTs. Learn from Lohr's experiences with extreme microcontroller projects, including bit-banging Ethernet on an ATtiny85 and broadcasting video from an ESP8266 GPIO pin. Gain insights into the practical applications of LUTs beyond traditional computer science concepts, and understand how this tool can revolutionize your approach to hardware and software development. Delve into topics such as hardware-software combinations, astrondefinitions, Minecraft bridging, and fullspeed USB implementation using LUTs. Uncover innovative ways to optimize processing speed and efficiency in your microcontroller projects.
