Edu-Logger heart rate and pulse logger
sensor
900-208
The Edu-Logger pulse sensor can be used for any
science experiment which requires a human heart rate
or pulse such as in the fields of Biology, Health
Sciences,
Physiology,
Exercise
Science,
Psychophysiology, etc.
The sensor comes pre-calibrated so you can start
experimentation right out of the box using this guide.
Heart rate can be measured in two ways with this
sensor: in beats per minute or in analog arbitrary
values to demonstrate the wave signal of a heartbeat
showing the blood volume in the finger or earlobe.
Hundreds of possible experiments that can be
performed with the 900-208 sensor are: physiological
experimentation, relationship between heart rate and
oxygen
flow,
blood
volume,
psychological
experiments which utilize heart rates, lie detection,
exercise experiments, VO
2
max experiments and
metabolism.
The heart rate and pulse sensor has two possible units
of measurement:
Beats Per Minute (BPM): The amount of
heart beats per minute
Arbitrary analog units (Arb): An arbitrary
unit meant to show wave functions.
