Digital Dashboard

After pricing a set of replacement Porsche Gauges at well over $1k, I decided it was time to build a digital dashboard. I had a Raspberry PI sitting around and ordered a 7 Inch hdmi display. The Solition1 controller broadcasts its data over the Ethernet cable using UDP, and they provide an example data logging application in c. After a brief search of the Internet I settled on Qt for the GUI since it would give the greatest flexibility, with qml for the graphics and c++ backed. Now to lean Qt and for a refresher in c++. I'll try to maintain the code on Github in case anyone is interested, but its most likely messy and broken at any given point.
