Using HealthyPi with a PC for ECG,Respiration & SpO2
https://www.electronics-lab.com/using-healthypi-pc-ecgrespiration-spo2/
Ashwin K Whitchurch, Venkatesh Bhat, and Manikandan S @ hackster.io build a PC based ECG,Respiration & SpO2 monitor. We introduced the HealthyPi as a HAT add-on for the Raspberry Pi, turning it into a full-featured, medical-grade open patient monitor. However, we realized later that people also wanted to use the board standalone with a Windows/Linux/Mac […]
