The group looked into methods of making a ECG sensor. A simple sensor could be setup using IR and light sensitive resistor. IR sensor would be mounted on one lip and light sensitive resistor on the other lip of a clip.
More Arduino programming was done this week. The group worked with LEDs and accelerometer. The acceleromter and LEDs were connected to the Arduino board. There were 3 LEDs and each LED corresponded to the X, Y and Z direction of the accelerometer movement. The associated LED blinked when substantive change was detected on its corresponding direction.
