Easy Pulse kit: A DIY pulse sensor based on photoplethysmography
The Easy Pulse sensor is designed for hobby and educational applications to illustrate the principle of photoplethysmography (PPG) as a non-invasive optical technique for detecting cardio-vascular pulse wave from a fingertip. It uses an infrared light source to illuminate the finger on one side, and a photodetector placed on the other side measures the small variations

PCBWeb – Free Online PCB Design Software
A new PCB design web application was released this last week called PCBWeb. The website states that PCBWeb is a free browser-based CAD application for designing and manufacturing electronics hardware. The tool is currently released in BETA and allows you to create a schematic, full circuit board layout, and then export to gerber format for
Interactive Development Kit
IDK started out as a discussion one night at a makerspace with the idea of adding some sensory interaction to a video game beyond the usual accelerometer or motion capture input. What ended up evolving from that discussion over the past year is a simple easy to use kit that allows software developers and creative thinkers
SKS – measuring and testing with pleasure
Testing probes, clips, cables and other products of company SKS enable simpler and more effective testing and development. Probably, you´ve already faced the situation, when it was necessary to measure several signals at once, or for example to have a voltmeter connected in some point of a device and to control another equipment at the
Plessey is first to release GaN on silicon LEDs
Plymouth, England – 8th April 2013 – Plessey announced that samples of its Gallium Nitride (GaN) on silicon LED products (p/n PLW111010) are available today. These entry level products are the first LEDs manufactured on 6-inch GaN on silicon substrates to be commercially available anywhere in the world. Plessey is using its proprietary large diameter
Simple DIY ECG + Pulse Oximeter (version 2)
Of the hundreds of projects I’ve shared over the years, none has attracted more attention than my DIY ECG machine on the cheap posted almost 4 years ago. This weekend I re-visited the project and made something I’m excited to share! The original project was immensely popular, my first featured article on Hack-A-Day, and today “ECG”
