Hello, I would like to help you out with this project and i think i am the right person for you. I have very good experience with Raspberry Pi (did recently projects involving Raspberry and : reading data from sensors, measuring sound db, stand alone units, mouse only interface, routers+mini web server, ...). I also have all the hardware needed (both models of Raspberry, sd cards, additional hardware). We will need to discuss a few details, but your project is precisely in my area of expertise. I am ready do start whenever you want. Regarding updates i have a solution that can be even better than replacing the SD card (it's working right now on a few units i have)
