Detailed Description

• ID: ehr
• Name: Ear-clip Heart Rate Sensor
• Category: medical
• Manufacturer: seeed
• Connection: gpio

UPM module for the ear-clip heart rate sensor. It is used to measure your heart rate.

  // Instantiate a  Ear-clip Heart Rate sensor on digital pin D2
  upm::EHR* heart = new upm::EHR(2);
  
  // set the beat counter to 0, init the clock and start counting beats
  heart->clearBeatCounter();
  heart->initClock();
  heart->startBeatCounter();

  while (shouldRun)
    {
      // we grab these just for display purposes in this example
      uint32_t millis = heart->getMillis();
      uint32_t beats = heart->beatCounter();

      // heartRate() requires that at least 5 seconds pass before
      // returning anything other than 0
      int hr = heart->heartRate();

      // output milliseconds passed, beat count, and computed heart rate
      cout << "Millis: " << millis << " Beats: " << beats;
      cout << " Heart Rate: " << hr << endl;

      sleep(1);
    }

  heart->stopBeatCounter();

Member Function Documentation

uint32_t getMillis

(

)

Returns the time of milliseconds elapsed since initClock() was last called.

Returns

Elapsed milliseconds

void initClock

(

)

Resets the clock

void clearBeatCounter

(

)

Resets the beat counter to 0. The beat counter should be stopped via stopBeatCounter() prior to calling this function.

void startBeatCounter

(

)

Starts the beat counter

void stopBeatCounter

(

)

Stops the beat counter

uint32_t beatCounter

(

)

Gets the beat Counter

Returns

Beat counter

int heartRate

(

)

Computes the heart rate

Returns

Computed heart rate
