No offense taken. I have worked as a test engineer in multiple areas and as a software engineer including doing some embedded development. I typically get requirements for the task to be accomplished and some idea of budget.
With that information I craft a design or select hardware for a hardware/software solution. >From my projects, I have always needed to have some level of connectivity. For remote field collection of data, I would still want external connectivity such that the data collected wout automatically transfer when connected to the network. For long term collection; internet of things or custom solutions use mesh networks with points of upload via cell networks or satellite. Data collection is more about the data than how it is collected or on what OS platform. The bigger issue would be making sure the data is transferable and in a readability format. The list tries to assist with your request and requirements. When we cannot find exactly what is required, we pose possible alternatives. Not knowing the underlying requirements sometimes gets you responses that go far a field.
