3) What I can think I can offer in gear

As a market test, or "proof of concept," how about building a prototype and
posting some photos, along with schematic & specs, for folks on this forum
to look at?

Building a prototype would be a necessary first step in any case. And you
might even get some useful suggestions from this crew, as cranky as they
might seem :-)
