That looks like a good condition playfield, there are a few option for the cupped inserts. i've seen posts where some are filled and leveled with a resin, others remove from the playfield and sand flat.
Maybe consider first trying a playfield protector, it may level over those inserts, provide protection, overal, and be reusable should you explore other options.

Not sure how deep you are in, however there are great little boards available from the OPP (Open Pinball Project) and can be used with the Mission Framework code, or their own, and would work with your Arduino as controler.
