Most of the firm-ware applications in consumer electronics and appliances is compiled machine code stored in firm-ware and run by dedicated "mask" programmed microprocessors.

For "one-off" devices and application development, most of the embedded controller supplies offer flash based versions and some form of development tools.

With the range of current offerings, your imagination and skills are the only limit.

For most people, a practical limitation is that you need to have a pretty good grasp of electronics in order to work with these devices and implement your design. None of these are stand-alone. They all need interface and support circuitry.

One source you might take a look at is Atmel.
