The MAX30102 Heart Rate Pulse Sensor Module is a wearable device that measures heart rate and pulse oximetry (blood oxygen saturation) through a non-invasive optical sensing method. The purple version of this module is a specific variation of the MAX30102 sensor module that has a purple PCB (printed circuit board).
The MAX30102 sensor module utilizes two LEDs (light-emitting diodes) to emit red and infrared light through the skin and into the blood vessels. A photodetector on the opposite side of the skin measures the amount of light that is absorbed or reflected by the blood vessels, which is used to calculate heart rate and blood oxygen saturation.
This sensor module is commonly used in various health monitoring and fitness applications, such as wearable fitness trackers, smartwatches, and medical devices. It is easy to use and integrate into different electronic projects, thanks to its small size, low power consumption, and I2C interface.
Overall, the MAX30102 Heart Rate Pulse Sensor Module (Purple version) is a reliable and convenient option for measuring heart rate and pulse oximetry for a variety of applications.
