ESP32 Cam and Pulse heart rate sensor

I need to connect an esp32 cam board and HW-827 pulse heart rate sensor to it for a project. Tried for this but those efforts were not successful. Please help me to achieve this.

What exactly did you try ?
How is the sensor connected to the ESP32 ?
What sketch did you use ?

have a look at pulse-sensor-esp32-tutorial

See this topic:

All my 3 sensors don't work. I bought it on the Aliexpress website and I think I was scammed, or even the original product doesn't work well.

have you an oscilloscope to have a look at the original signal?

if you do a web search for arduino pulse rate sensor you may get some help

connected a HW-827 pulse heart rate sensor to an ESP32 NodeMCU
loaded PulseSensorPlayground library an ran File>Examples>PulseSensorPlayground>PulseSensor_ESP32

the display is fairly random varying between 65 and 85, e.g.

a oximeter gives a pulse rate between 72 and 77bpm

@horace Yes, I have an oscilloscope, and the output signal from the 3 sensors observed on the oscilloscope are very small, not allowing direct use on the Arduino's logical input.

My sensors are of this type:

looks similar to the sensor I have which I connected directly to ESP32 GPIO36 in post 6

the oscilloscope signal looks like

measuring the time between two pulses of 800mSec gives a pulse rate of 75
