Heartbeat Pulse Rate Monitoring With Arduino
This project is based on the MAX30100 / MAX30102 Originally published on instructables This simple and inexpensive project is based around the MAX30100 sensor breakout board and utilizes a small 0.91″ OLED display to report the heart rate and oxygenation level. Both the devices used have an I2C two-wire interface and therefore keeps the wiring down to […]
Arduino Counting Scale Project
Originally published on instructables This project is still somewhat of a work in progress however it’s reached a point where it’s useful to share the details for others to benefit from it and the idea. It is basically a scale built using the Arduino as the microcontroller, a generic load cell, the HX711 signal amplifier […]
