Interesting approach and useful for someone else as a starter kit to build on for another application. You could really run the Pi side on almost any model - like one that is gathering dust in a drawer having been replaced by a more powerful Pi.

I developed a Raspberry Pi based web server for a different purpose (Do-It-Yourself Certificate Authority on a Raspberry Pi). It got complicated enough that I resorted to using a Python package called "Flask" to provide the web server infrastructure. Maybe I overkilled this but my users in Asia are far away and I did not want them calling me in the middle of their afternoon (I'm in Texas USA). Note that this could run on almost any model - maybe every model (only tested on models 2 and 3 so far in Hong Kong and here in Texas).

If you follow-up this project with an enhancement or a "left-turn" to the approach, please publish. Thank you.

Interesting project.

I will be following your progress with interest.

Who knows, I might be inspired to implement it on my PI.

I am curious, are you planning to run more than one device sending data to the interface at a time?

It could provide some interesting collision/recovery data for a simple network.

Just done some quick performance tests and the time it takes to send and receive this data over our wireless network takes between 1ms and 2.5ms in most cases. It went as high as 5ms just once in the 500 test samples taken.
