Is this an off the shelf sensing widget or a homebrew?
Luckily I don't have the ability or education to address this "solution".
I don't even know where you guys are going if you get one (or is it
several?).  I'd just hook this up on the bench and play with it.  Probably
be done by now.

It is if we know VA, VB, VC and Vout, in addition to the applied voltages
V1, V2 and V3.  Otherwise, we have 9 or 10 unknowns, and the situation is
quite hopeless.
