I understand you need a basic circuit board to distribute power to the motor/heater, although USB 3.0 is supposed to allow devices to draw as much power as they want

If either Windows or Apple's OS X or Linux were Real Time Operating Systems (RTOS) it would be possible. Problem is that they aren't.
