Title: WiFi decoder

Description: Hi, is anyone developing a complete wifi solution for the model railway enthusiast? e.g connect any command station into a wifi module that talks to an onboard wifi module that then connects to the decoder (eliminate track as medium for DCC commands), essentially using wifi to communicate the DCC commands to the decoder - the loco is driven by an onboard battery (driven by the motor controller of the decoder) and charges via rail 12-20vac (no polarity issues) on none complex track sections/sidings (i.e. straight sections not connected to switches) etc? I see a lot of wifi cab/phone to command controller to track but nothing that converts the command controller to wifi that then communicates to an onboard wifi module. The 'onboard' wifi modules can then be attached to accessory decoders etc etc .. all loco and accessories controlled by wifi ... DCCconcepts ESP sets up its own local wifi which is also a good idea to keep off 'general' wifi networks?
