DFRobot Gravity Heart Rate Monitor Sensor for Arduino

The DFRobot heart rate sensor is a compact heart rate monitoring device specifically designed for Arduino microcontrollers. Utilizing pulse oximetry (PPG) techniques, this sensor detects changes in blood volume within the microvascular tissues. This optical method offers a straightforward and cost-effective means of capturing the pulsatile component of the cardiac cycle.

Featuring two attachment holes, the sensor offers versatility in placement, allowing users to affix it to their belt or wrap it around their finger, wrist, earlobe, or other skin-contact areas. Its integration with a gravity interface facilitates seamless plug-and-play functionality, simplifying usage for users.

For connectivity with Arduino or other microcontrollers, the io sensor shield serves as the optimal interface. Moreover, the sensor is compatible with a range of platforms including Raspberry Pi, Intel Edison, Joule, and Curie, supporting input voltages of 3.3V.
