The KY-039 Finger Detecting Heartbeat Module is a precise pulse detection sensor module designed to measure heartbeats accurately. It utilizes a bright infrared (IR) LED and a phototransistor to achieve precise measurements.
When placed on a finger, the module detects the blood pressure pulse by utilizing the flux emitted by the finger during each heartbeat. The phototransistor in the module senses the changes in resistance caused by the blood pressure pulse, allowing for accurate detection.
To provide visual indication of each detected pulse, the module includes a red LED that flashes with each heartbeat. This allows for real-time feedback and monitoring.
The KY-039 module features a high resistance resistor (R1) that enhances the sensitivity of the phototransistor. This ensures reliable and consistent pulse detection. Additionally, the module's shield design helps prevent stray light from interfering with the phototransistor readings, enhancing accuracy.
The resistance of the module is experimentally adjustable, allowing for fine-tuning and optimization of the sensor's performance for different scenarios.
The KY-039 Finger Detecting Heartbeat Module is particularly suitable for use in home environments where lighting conditions may vary. It can effectively operate in fluctuating lighting conditions, ensuring reliable pulse detection.
This module finds applications in various fields, including healthcare, fitness monitoring, and biometric systems. It provides a convenient and non-invasive method for measuring heartbeats accurately, making it an ideal choice for projects and applications requiring precise pulse detection.
