/* PulseSensorâ„¢ Starter Project and Signal Tester * The Best Way to Get Started With, or See the Raw Signal of, your PulseSensorâ„¢ & Arduino. * * Here is a link to the tutorial * https://pulsesensor.com/pages/code-and-guide * * WATCH ME (Tutorial Video): * https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82T_zBZQkOE * * ------------------------------------------------------------- 1) This shows a live human Heartbeat Pulse. 2) Live visualization in Arduino's Cool "Serial Plotter". 3) Blink an LED on each Heartbeat. 4) This is the direct Pulse Sensor's Signal. 5) A great first-step in troubleshooting your circuit and connections. 6) "Human-readable" code that is newbie friendly." */ // Variables int PulseSensorPurplePin = 28; // Pulse Sensor PURPLE WIRE connected to ANALOG PIN 0 int LED13 = 26; // The on-board Arduion LED int Signal; // holds the incoming raw data.
