Thanks Dave for the details - that sounds really interesting. Your friend sounds really enterprising and the coding skills he has sounds really useful - coding is a skill I don't have (maybe when I'm retired). Have to admit my option was much simpler than your friend's - a 4-channel input temperature datalogger (OM-CP-QUADRTD), purchased 8 years ago with XP drivers from Omega.co.uk.
Would be good if Linux drivers exist for this...
I was using the datalogger for a 'marine gardening' project (a hobby which involved successfully growing different kinds of local seaweed), where I needed to monitor and maintain tight control of cool water temperatures, and other parameters.

2017 - Raspberry pi 3B (4cores) ~ [email protected] - LibreElec, used for upgrading our Samsung TV (excellent for the task)
2012 - Lenovo G580 2689 (2cores; 4threads] ~ [email protected] - LL3.8/Win8.1 dual-boot (LL working smoothly)
2011 - Samsung NP-N145 Plus (1core; 2threads) ~ Intel Atom [email protected] - LL 3.8 32-bit (64-bit too 'laggy')
2008 - Asus X71Q (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6/Win8.1 dual-boot, LL works fine with kernel 4.15
2007 - Dell Latitude D630 (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6, works well with kernel 4.4; 4.15 doesn't work
