Could you build this?

No Implementing a proprietary camera lens autofocus protocol requires deep reverse engineering of hardware signals, embedded firmware programming, and real-time electronic control.

What it would actually take: Building this requires reverse engineering Sony's proprietary E-mount electronic protocol using logic analyzers and oscilloscopes to sniff lens-body SPI/UART communication. The implementation demands bare-metal C/C++ embedded firmware running on the adapter's microcontrollers (such as STM32) with strict microsecond-level timing and motor control algorithms. Specialized expertise in embedded systems, hardware debugging, and camera optics protocols is strictly required.
