Random thought... before there was sw eating the world there was (analog) electricity eating the world. So many 20th c sensors basically produce a voltage signal. You don’t need an arduino etc to read them. An analog multimeter or oscilloscope will do. Any writing on this?

It’s not at all convenient... for eg replacing physical scales or a spring balance (pointer on a dial or linear rule) with a strain gauge means you need a power source and a voltmeter. But once electricity eats a sensor layer, you can build instrument panels without computing.
