Well, I did some more "detective work"...
I came across this thread from a forum where they did some teardown of one of those electronic microscope. It's interesting because there are clear pictures of the PCB, which can give some hints:

For instance, this time the makers bothered including an HDMI output:
There can be seen that, appart from finding the traces themselves, some extra electronics is needed.
Also, look at the 3 spots below the "EAUE" chip. That's a serial connection. We have 3 dots in a near place, so I bet that's a console connection, too. Can it be a different one than the one you found? I remember reading somewhere in the datasheet something like that. On the same thread they say they gained access to the console and the speed was 115 kbps.
The other side:
I have no idea about what that IC on the bottom side of the HDMI connector is.
Winai could have done something similar on our machines, using a connector for the CMOS sensor instead of soldering it directly to the PCB, which maybe could have allowed us to swap the cam with a better, compatible one...
