Abstract

Heart rate is a measured of counting beats over a set period of time influenced by physiological factors like the circadian cycle, posture, blood pressure, and physical activity. This project is to design and develop the prototype of a simple, concise and efficient heart rate monitoring using pulse sensor amped based on IoT. Pulse sensor (optical-based heart rate sensor) is specially created to detect pulse. Pulse sensor amped is an upgrade version of pulse sensor. Input signal from the pulse sensor amped is in the form of analog. It will be converted into digital signal using MCP3008. The data will be visualized in the form of real time graph using matplotlib and push notification will be sent if the heart rate is either Sinus Bradycardia or Sinus Tachycardia or normal using telegram-cli command-line client. Python language will be utilized for the interaction between the hardware on a linux based raspberry pi 3. The idea of developing this prototype is due to the existing heart rate monitoring is quite expensive, painful, risky and not really friendly to be used. In this project, a few simple steps need to be done as a project methodology to complete it. Firstly, literature review (previous research and theory) has to be done to gain information about the hardware, software, language, method that will be used for this project. Next, list all the components and do the project design for the hardware and software. At this point, the component and design must be suitable and meet the requirement for this project to solve the problem statement. Next is hardware development, start to work on the prototype by implementing all the software and the hardware. Finally is testing and verification where the prototype will be tested and the project will be documented for verification. This project are varies in contribution such as it is a better tool to measure heart rate, Smart step precaution for Sinus Bradicardya (slow heart rate) and Sinus Tachycardia(fast heart rate) and friendly IoT project.
