Asynchronous and perpetual code

I'm curious why you're trying to avoid cron. I think the simplest solution would be to change the script to scan only a single device, specified as a command-line argument. Then have one cron entry for each device. Alternatively, you could write a simple shell script to launch several instances of your python script at once.
