Hi Sir  
what is the link between the title of your topic and these two questions??

In general you can collect data via different ways Depends on what you want to achieve

THANKS to reply me jafal !!

The easiest way to achieve the goal as my topic says would be fine~  
My idea now is like  
a. Create a simple website, people who scan the QRcode will link to the website.  
b. The Website will collect input to be a table. Maybe i need to write an UI?  
c. Use the Excel to catch table from online to window once in a while.  
d. My processing code read the excel file and display the marquee.

I’m not sure if it is possible. And now, i have no idea about (a) and (b) QQ
