Seems strange that there is no commercial "off the shelf" products doing
this.  Perhaps there is.  I will have to search this afternoon when I
get a minute.

Indeed, but this is beyond my abilities.  :-(

What would the loop through provide?

If you can do that you might want to think about filling a possible
market void.  Inventions are the way to get rich.  :-)

Small detail and to be expected.
