Has LineageOS or any other open source Android ROM moved into the Smart Clock (bedside alarm clock space)?

It seems some of these run Android Things:

The touchscreen isn't as robust as Google's other smart displays, but it uses the same Android Things software which is a trimmed-down version of Google's mobile operating system meant for smart home gadgets.

It looks as though the Lenovo Smart Clock open source software is here. Looking quickly it appears to be the kernel only.

The device's SoC appears to from MediaTek, codename mt8167s possibly the same device powering the Lenovo Smart Display. (The kernel config file is called mt8167s_ref_debug_defconfig). I don't see any device repositories on github for this, but interestingly, there is a file for Google's Fuchsia OS Zircon microkernel for this board.

Somoene appears to have put the source on github here. He (I assume "he"- the name is "deadman96385") has a TWRP recovery repo here for the smart clock (which may actually be named iot_mt8167s_som ??) which might be a good starting point for doing a full android port.

Also, looks like he dumped the rom here.
