+#   Pi (Raspberry Pi 3) — Flask web UI + SQLite + OBD/GPS/dashcam, hosted as a
+#     5GHz AP on wlan1 (T3U #1, 10.42.0.1); internet uplink on wlan2 (T3U #2,
+#     home WiFi "BuzzBis" or phone hotspot); onboard wlan0 retired to fallback.
+#   Android companion app — connects to http://10.42.0.1 over the hotspot for
+#     the live dashboard + dashcam downloads, uploads to the remote server
+#     (https://yaris.ceaf.dev) over the phone's own cellular link.
+#   Remote server — self-hosted Flask+Postgres stack (unraid, yaris.ceaf.dev).
