Main Hardware Components:

- Arduino Uno
- LCD
- Pulse sensor
- Wi-Fi module ESP8266

Software:

- ThingSpeak

We will use in this project an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use


hardware and software called Arduino Uno. This open-source microcontroller board
based on the ATmega328P microcontroller.

Arduino Uno

The pulse sensor will measure the change in volume of blood, which occurs when
every time heart pumps blood in the body. It can detect the pulse easily from a finger.

Arduino Uno will convert this change of volume of blood into the heart beat per
minute (BPM).

Pulse sensor

The data of the heart (BPM) will be displayed on LCD and will be sent through Wi-
Fi module (ESP8266) to the ThingSpeak site.

Wi-Fi module (ESP8266)

ThingSpeak is an open data platform for the Internet of Things (IoT) application and API to store and retrieve
data from things over the Internet or via a Local Area Network.

With ThingSpeak we can anywhere and anytime checking the heart (BPM) in real time and review the historical
data of BPM of the patient.
