Hello
I am a (very) beginner when it comes to the ESP8266 chip.
I have one very simple question:
Can the ESP chip act as a Gateaway (pass-through) from UART to WiFi, in order to transfer large amounts of data?
I would like to connect the ESP to a microcontroller which sends about 16 Bytes of data (about 20kB/s) every 1ms on the UART. The ESP would need to receive this data and send it to a computer with a web browser.
The idea is that neither the ESP nor the Microcontroller would have to buffer this data, but that it would be available from the Computer's RAM, i.e. the ESP, instead of always creating the results page from the beginning, would just have to send an extra packet at the end of it as soon as it received the data.
As a result I would like to have a text file with the data in the web browser.
Is it possible to do this on the ESP without writing a special program for the computer?
