TCRT5000L pulse monitor

Hello everyone!

Can someone give me some simple schematic circuit using TCRT5000L as a detector for finger pulse.
And is it possible to feed it's output to an arduino?

This project is really an headache.
I've got only a week to finish this project. =(
Thanks in advance!

I'm sorry for your headache, but I have no such sensor. I searched the forum and found 6 threads about this sensor.

furthermore a google gave me this - http://robosavvy.com/RoboSavvyPages/Inex/POPbot/POP-BOT-LITE_MANUAL.pdf -

it includes a complete electric scheme for a robot using this sensor. Unfortunately robots do not have a pulse (wrong assumption? BORG have pulses :slight_smile:

Typing this message costs almost more time than the search ....
