Implementation of Heart Rate Measurement Device

Abstract

A prominent position is held by the biomedical instrumentation within medicine. Heart rate varies when necessity of body to absorb oxygen and excrete carbon dioxide changes while doing exercise or sleep. The diagnosis and tracking of medical conditions can be achieved by measuring heart rate. The heart rate measurement device can be used anywhere to measure the heart rate of a person. The approach to design a cheap and reliable device is demonstrated by this paper. In this paper we learn that heart rate signal can be found using fingertip sensor. Signal is amplified with the help of amplifier because signal is having low amplitude. Counter counts the amplified signal. RF transmitter transmits the signal. RF receiver receives the signal and then16X2 LCD display will show the heart rate of the person.
