I think the resolution (or whatever the right word is) of most hall sensors is kind of an obstacle. I don't think it would be too hard to put four or whatever magnets around something in order to determine the rough rotor position, but 512 isn't doable AFAIK unless we're looking at something w/ a really large circumference. It also depends on the maximum speed at which the sensor can vary it's output voltage.
