Project Started : 21/4/2014
Hello there.
Currently I am working on a project Pulse HeartBeat sensor that can be utilized by an android phone/laptop.
Hardware Description,
- Arduino Uno
2)Pulse Sensor
3)Data Logger
4)Bluetooth shield
5)Side components ( Jumpers, resistors, laptops, android phone)
Project Description
To make a pulse sensor device that can either detect heartbeat pulse and record measurements to SD Card on the data logger and/or interfacing the pulse reading to an android phone.
Progress
So far, my team mates and I have bought all of the above components in the hardware description. What we have done is basically used the pulse sensor and tested it's functionality to a computer using arduino programming environment and process programming environment.
What I'd like to ask for assistance is ideas. How do we record data measurements from the pulse sensor to the SD Card using the data logger? How do we interface the pulse reading from the arduino to the android phone? How will the circuit look like?
Side Notes
We had done some experiments using the Arduino and are only beginner in using it. We had done multiple experiment such as Display Thermometer, Blinking LED, Blinking 8 LEDS using transistor, rotating the DC Motor, playing with the display but really nothing extraordinary. This project will be the first real project that we are making.
