Making a simpler add on board #6

I’m curious, what parts would be needed to make this more into an add on board for a raspberry pi or an Arduino? Seems like it would saving a lot of engineering to use an off the shelf board, to integrate into industrial settings. Have you explored this at all?

You could basically replace the STM32F3 by the required board (Arduino / Raspberry Pi). As the ADC and the LED driver are interfaced using SPI/I2C you could simply connect those to the board using pin headers (you might have to add level shifters). Some potential issues might be:
