Jeez,

I can only say that creating such a system from scratch will also give you a 
grand view of the other systems.

I guess it'll be way smaller, code-wise, and so much friendlier for embedded 
systems, and much more practical, short-term.

Thinking long-term, three years hence (by the time your modules are in shops and 
selling by the thousand), re-use of sc to do the same would be more pursuasive.

Recognising where things stand now, and having code ready to exploit the state 
of currently available hardware, sounds almost, dare I say, commercial :)

Best of luck :)
