A headless Raspberry Pi approximates this well:
If you’ve got a Raspberry Pi 4 lying around give this a shot over the weekend:

This was a quick R&D project and we just got it working a few hours ago so we haven’t tested it too much yet. We don’t know if the Raspberry Pi will become a supported platform for us yet, but let us know if you find it useful.
PS- Be sure you run sudo apt-get update before trying to install this package if you’re on a fresh Pi install
Just connect to the Pi using a tablet or phone to control it.

that seems like an interesting branch. i was thinking more along the lines of just plugging the existing board into an offline controller in lieu of a pc or tablet.
