Hi all:
There is a new product I noticed out there that might be a cool way to display Indigo status in an analog / digital display. They look like little odometers and apparently they can be customized to display any number of variables.

Has anyone tried using one of these with Indigo? The trick would be to figure out how to pass variables to it. It is Wifi-connected and it is configurable via an app. It also has an API, I believe (beyond my skill set, unfortunately).
This also begs the question: what other ways are there to display indigo status without resorting to an app or computer? In my mind, I thought some sort of switch board with LEDs could be used to display on/off status of various devices. How would that work? I have in mind a system that would allow you to see, at a glance, the various statuses of different devices, cameras, etc. on an analog board (or even LED lights or perhaps LCD displays)... I guess, I hate having to open up the iPhone all the time to get that information and having a dashboard of sorts would be really cool too, a la star trek or star wars or something.
Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated.
