Heart Rate and Pulse Waveform Sensor

The Heart Rate and Pulse Waveform Sensor is a compact, easy-to-use device that allows students to monitor physiological responses during activity. Using infrared sensors, the clip-style unit measures changes in blood volume at the fingertip to calculate heart rate and observe waveform data. Ideal for health, biology, and exercise science studies, it supports real-time monitoring for both rest and active states.

Educational Benefits:

• Provides real-time data for studying heart rate and recovery times.
• Supports inquiry-based investigations into human physiology.
• Reinforces key biology concepts through live monitoring.
• Encourages cross-curricular learning between health and science.

Classroom Use Ideas:

• Explore the effects of physical activity on heart rate and recovery.
• Conduct comparative studies on resting vs post-exercise readings.
• Integrate into lessons on baroception, blood flow, and the heart cycle.
• Pair with ECG or stethoscope for extended heart system analysis.
