It&#8217;s a red PCB with a plugin fingertip sensor (see above). The\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/embedded-lab.com\/uploads\/Processing\/Easy_Pulse_PPG_Analyzer_V1_0.zip\">example code you can download is in C<\/a> and my Picorder code is in Python. Plus, their code does a lot of messing about with filtering and removing bits and pieces that I really couldn&#8217;t be bothered with. Most of theirs is to do with plotting the pulses on a graph as well, and I don&#8217;t need that. So, I wrote my own version in Python. I&#8217;m once again using the <a href=\"http:\/\/nwazet.com\/pi-keylime\">Key Lime Pi from Nwazet<\/a> which is essentially an MCP3008 ADC slapped onto a Pi cobbler breakout board. (I&#8217;m being very ungenerous there &#8211; it&#8217;s a brilliant, brilliant product. You can <a href=\"http:\/\/shop.pimoroni.com\/products\/nwazet-key-lime-pi-gpio-analog-ftdi-power\">buy it in the UK from Pimoroni<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/1800\/products\/Key_Lime_Pi_a2_large.jpg?resize=480%2C480\" width=\"480\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Anyway, so we&#8217;ve got Fingertip sensor-&gt;Easy Pulse board-&gt;Key Lime Pi-&gt;Raspberry Pi.
