I have been looking at the various bits and pieces -- The switch to drive a latch is easy ( two lines of code and the appropriate connectors ).
The hard thing is getting all the other pieces ie TFT, extra output pins, possible memory expansion and the code for a menu. Starting with a Mega and TFT touchscreen and see how things go.
Actually the most challenging might be how to make this into a non-breadboard solution for a hot, high vibration environment.
