[App+Hardware] Pulse Monitor

[lseidman]

Hi Everyone,

As you may remember, my last project was making the Bluetooth RC Car Controller for WP8 (Get the project at: https://github.com/lanceseidman/iRacer_Controller; Video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Af6iGyM64Gk).

I've now taken my Base Project (https://github.com/lanceseidman/Arduino-Bluetooth-WinPhone8) and made a Pulse Monitor using the Arduino Uno R3, Bluetooth Module (Blue SMiRF Silver), and Pulse Sensor [project by Joel and Yury].

You can see it in action here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0pYQsY4Zbo.

The source to the Pulse Monitor App is not on GitHub as it isn't anything too extensive and based on my base project (see above). The App itself will be available in the App store shortly for those who have the Hardware. Don't have the Hardware? I have been making a small Circuit using the ATMega382 to allow you to make these projects at home and cheaper than buying a full size Arduino Uno or buying a Arduino Pro for around the same price.

Thanks,
Lance

If you can make an app to get, Pebble, Metawatch, Citizen Proximity, CooKoo, or any other smart watch working with windows phone 8 published. I will donate $50 and I'm sure I'm not the only one out there!

Thank you and actually I do make a Smartwatch, called the WEDA. Completely open platform. Works also with all Bluetooth enabled Tablets, Android, and yet to test with iOS.

Unfortunately, not enough people backed my original Indiegogo but I have my last attempt coming up but waiting for great video to show it in action but also trying to implement Barometer, Vibrate, etc.

I definitely would, just I don't have any of those devices. Maybe they'd let me borrow one, I will look in to it.

There are some pretty good deals on some of the watches on ebay! Let me know when you get something up and running, you will be my hero and $50 richer! lol

The problem is, each watch/wristband is different on how it receives and permits connections.
