It would probably be best to document what we were thinking here. I'm assuming that @richfitz or @sdwfrost will correct me if I'm wrong here.
As @sdwfrost said, this is basically a cheaper version of EWARS in a box with the software embedded to deploy RECON shiny apps, collect and tag data versions, transmit data, and receive data.
The raspberry pi is a fully functional, affordable computer (~30 GBP) that is the size of a playing card. Since it This could be used to host pre-installed versions of RECON packages that can be accessed via shinyapps or htmlwidgets for analysis of data.
The pi's can be adapted to work with paper-based data collection methods using digital cameras and OCR software. These images will then be tagged, compressed, stored, and shipped to other sites via whatever method for data transfer possible (e.g. wireless or satellite phone) so that the work of data entry can be distributed among sites. All of the data provenance will be recorded in the process. Cleaned data will be continuously updated and a button can be added to the raspberry pis for analysts on the ground to push a (physical) button and print useful visualizations such as the epi curve.

I do like that you think about blockchain early on. I assume you will interact with the ethereum blockchain?
