From the project

Low-cost replay device for playing back Tool Assisted Speedruns on real hardware

A PIC18F47K42 microcontroller is used for the replay portion of the device, and the smaller PIC18F27K42 is used for controlling the input displays.

Unlike a typical TAS replay device, this one stores the TAS inputs on-board, using serial flash memory (W25Q128JVSIQ), capable of storing 16 MB of input data. The advantage is that USB communication is not required during replay. It simplifies the replay process, and greatly reduces the chance of corrupted inputs. Additionally, once programmed, the device can be used without a USB host computer (WIP feature).
