Could you build this?

Partial The T-Display firmware and UI can be vibe-coded, but it requires physical hardware and knowledge of the Daikin IR protocol, which must be reverse-engineered or sourced from captures.

What it would actually take: Build ESP32 firmware for a LilyGO T-Display that captures and replays Daikin IR frames. The hard part is accurate protocol decoding and timing, which needs an IR receiver, an oscilloscope or logic analyzer, and a real unit to test against.
