OVERVIEW

Digital Heart Beat Sensor

This heart beat sensor is designed to give digital output of heart beat when a finger is placed on it. When
the heartbeat detector is working, the top-most LED flashes with each heart beat. This digital output can
be connected to microcontroller directly to measure the Beats Per Minute (BPM) rate. It works on the
principle of light modulation by blood flow through finger at each pulse. Module dual output mode,
digital output is simple, serial output with exact readings.

FEATURES

Heart beat indication by LED

Instant output digital signal for directly connecting
to microcontroller
Total heart beat count can be obtained serially
(TTL) every minute
Module dual output mode, digital output is simple,
serial output with exact reading
Compact size
Working voltage +5v DC

EXPERIMENTAL SETUP

HEART BEAT SENSOR ARDUINO CODE

byte byteRead;
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600);
//BAUD RATE
Serial.println("===================");
Serial.println("heat beat sensor");
Serial.println("===================");
}
void loop()
{
if (Serial.available())
{
int byteRead = Serial.parseInt();
if(!byteRead == 0)
Serial.println(byteRead);
}
