A pulse sensor is an electronic sensor developed to measure an individual’s heart rate or pulse in real time. These sensors typically operate on the principle of photoplethysmography (PPG), detecting changes in the amount of light reflected from or transmitted through tissue due to rhythmic variations in blood flow. The measured analog data is processed digitally through microcontroller platforms such as Arduino, ESP32, and STM32. As a result, pulse sensors are widely used in educational applica

In today’s world, where wearable technology and personal health monitoring devices are rapidly becoming widespread, certain components have a revolutionary impact. The MAX30100 sensor, developed by Maxim Integrated, is a pioneering component that perfectly fits this description. Thanks to its ability to measure two critical vital signs—pulse rate (heart rate) and blood oxygen saturation (SpO2)—in a single compact package, this sensor has become an indispensable tool for both hobbyists working on
