Interfacing an Oximeter to arduino

Projects General Guidance
1

Hi,

I want to incorporate a pulse oximeter in an arduino project. There seem to be lots of cheap stand-alone oximeters available, but I can't find any that indicate they can be interfaced via I2C (or similar) to a computer or arduino.

I can't be the first person to have wanted to do this, can anyone help? (just clarify, I don't want to build one from scratch I want to interface to an of-the-shelf oximeter)

thanks

You'll have more luck when looking for other interfaces, like USB or RS232. I2C is a too low level interface, very unlikely to be exposed by stand-alone devices. Inside a device an I2C connection may be found, for the connection of a display or other components.

To be honest, I'm not that bothered about the exact type of interface, I'm just looking for an OEM oximeter that can be connected easily to an arduino project
