This is pretty cool, can I ask why you decided to ship hardware and not a subscription to a dashboard that people could put on any mounted monitor?

It came out of a project that I did [1] from which I wanted to see what it takes to turn that into an actual product[2]. Hardware is a while other game than software especially in low quantity as you still need to deal with things like CE.

Most likely because those dashboards are available for free from your local public transport operator.
