As far as the touchscreen goes , thats a nice thought, but not in our budget.
I'd prefer to spend ~300 dollars on the reciept style printer.
Can someone point me in the direction to get this started?

What input do you need from the user? They connect the device, it scans
and shows results, they disconnect. No need for a touchscreen, or even
a normal mouse and keyboard.
Do you need printed reports? If so, use a standard printer, possibly
one that's already on your network.
As for directions:
Use your choice of programming language to write a program that will
call file(1) to determine filesystem, mount the device, virus scan, and
unmount the device. Display prompts and results with dialog(1). Print
results if desired.
Configure devd.conf(5) to detect USB mass storage device connect and run
the program.
