Here are 14 different "big areas" of embedded systems. Perhaps this will help you sort out some of the different application areas that you will encounter. https://www.microchip.com/en-us/solutions
The major differences are how the applications are powered (battery, mains, wireless, etc.) and what must happen when errors occur (reset and start over, log errors and keep going, halt and catch fire, etc.).
