Description: Heart rate data can be really useful
whether you’re designing an exercise routine, studying your activity or
anxiety levels or just want your shirt to blink with your heart beat.
The problem is that heart rate can be difficult to measure. Luckily, the
Pulse Sensor Amped can solve that problem!
The Pulse Sensor Amped is a plug-and-play heart-rate sensor for
Arduino. It can be used by students, artists, athletes, makers, and game
& mobile developers who want to easily incorporate live heart-rate
data into their projects.It essentially combines a simple optical heart
rate sensor with amplification and noise cancellation circuitry making
it fast and easy to get reliable pulse readings. Also, it sips power
with just 4mA current draw at 5V so it’s great for mobile applications.
Simply clip the Pulse Sensor to your earlobe or finger tip and plug it into your 3 or 5
Volt Arduino and you’re ready to read heart rate! The 24" cable on the
Pulse Sensor is terminated with standard male headers so there’s no
soldering required. Of course Arduino example code is available as well
as a Processing sketch for visualizing heart rate data.
