We live in the age of Arduino, where every sensor gets one microcontroller... Couldn't that STM32 handle an OLED display and logging? And why use an SD card? The atmega328p has 1k EEPROM, and even some STM32 have it in similar size. I know this is just a prototype and for testing, but I really, really despite the wastefulness of the „Arduino age” in general. (Here I have to mention that I don't hate anyone for doing this, I hate the trend that is going on.) And it's especially sad, because this trend reduces the need for clever design choices, something I really enjoy to see.
Absolutely agree, and the same trend is happenning in computer programming. When cheap components and large amounts of computing power are available at little cost, people stop caring about efficiency and performance, and just start piling levels of abstraction to fix their problems. Although to be fair, Scott probably doesn't have the time to develop a custom PCB and µC specific program that goes with it for each project.
i kept thinking the same. there you got that cpu that's probably 10 times more powerful than your arduino, in a nice case that looks like it has some space left over for display,battery and card slot if you play a bit of tetris and desolder that connector, and instead let's just add another cpu, custom case, and loads of hotglue? :P
How do you plan on easily getting the data off? Through the serial port with custom written software on both ends thst has to be updated for new systems and be somehow cross-platform compatible for a "proper" setup... It's easier to just use a small SD Card that really doesn't cost much nowadays
The heart rate sticking to ~161 will be the sensor detecting your running cadence. It's a common issue with wrist based heart rate measurements. I opt for a chest mounted HRM for more accurate data. Would be great to see a video making your own chest HRM as they measure differently.
Having worked on optical heart rate technology I can tell you a few things. For sports where movement happens the signal is not close to stable, but you first need to start with an optimized mechanical package with optimized brightness and spacing and a large photosite. Most of these early and cheap "all in one" led / sensor / AFE can't work on wrists or arms well due to the lower signal and are now relegated to the "finger HRM sensor" pile, and low end cheap "smart" watches where you can fight a little to get them to work while not moving. The movement generally means the signal gets lost, completely -- that's what you're seeing. The better ones use algorithms that take your history and accel vibration to estimate your HRM. They've gotten really good at guessing what your HRM is..... not directly measuring. While still filtered a HRM chest strap only uses algorithims to clean up noise and variation -- that's closer to a real reference, not another guestimator.
I should hope not. I'm a software/electronics engineer and the day my job tells me to program something to become unusable over time is the day I quit my job and post what they tried to do all over the internet. I should hope this practice doesn't exist. I wonder if there are any real world examples out there of where a company got caught doing this practice?

Hey Scott can you do a video on pulse oximeters? How do they work and maybe a DIY I use them daily as I am a nurse and would love to know how they function!
Your project videos are great bcoz of eazyness to understand that's why i always watch your videos coz i always something new for learning, keep working and go higher I have a suggestion for you, you should make videos about working principle of components in detail, we need that,
Because the peripherals, in this case, are supposed to work on 3.3V. The MAX3010x family works on 3v3 level, and the FTDI or commonly known as TTL converter works on 3v3 too. This is not due to the requirement of the controller, but the logic levels used by the computer.
Hi Scott i have been following you for years and i really like your videos ( one of your patreons 😉 ) and you have inspired me to create my own videos. Its not as good as yours but they will be over time. Thank you very much for all your knowledge and work. 😎
I'd bet you could make a slimmer package overall if you could get the raw components for the HR sensor and designed a custom PCB, maybe something approaching the regular watch form factor
That's pretty much what I discovered when I was testing my cheap ebay fitness watch, ie, the sensor contact is very important for accuracy. I went back to the old style chest ones, with water to ensure contact, and it's 100% reliable.
I used to test those watches before Nokia bought the company and they were still made by Withings. They are actually quite good, if very simplistic, which isn't a bad thing. The analogue-esque step counter was a nice touch
This isn't an accurate way to measure someones temperature because it only measures the surface of the skin. It should be highly discouraged as you could put yourself or others at risk by using any data you get from this method.
@@abyssunderground Don't all of the new contactless thermometers work on the exact same principle? And hospitals use them all the time now with the virus going around.
Wow what great intro project! I was wondering what you think about making a compact smartwatch design using an esp32, heart rate monitor, squarish oled display, tactile buttons, small lipo battery and 3d printed enclosure? The esp32 is used to connect either a website/app through either bluetooth or wifi. Thats the kind of project id like to make once i have some free time. Though i still need to buy a 3d printer and practice some designs.
Hi Great Scott, please make a video of necessary electric work safety equipment and practices which includes the gloves you used during your spot welder videos and the ones used while working on home live line equipments, safety glasses, footwear, ear plugs, face masks to protect from glass dust, spray and abrasive powders etc with safety practices such as stripping high amperage cables without loosing strands, fire safety, explosion safety, power line safety etc. Also provide shopping links so you get some commission. This would be one of the best series of your videos as it’s absolutely essential to practice safe engineering. Thank you JP.
If you wouldn't live in the age of arduino, you could have used the pure sensor, display and a uC on a custom pcb to make the project way cheaper, smaller and provide a way higher value gain, writing your own code. All these modules may be fine for a first test, but a finished project schould be more polished.
There's a logic error in your assumptions though. Both devices use the same kind of technology to measure your heart rate and because both give similar results you assert that they both must be correct. To be much more certain, you'd need to compare the results with data obtained by a different method. For instance, stopping at intervals and measuring your heart rate by counting the number of beats in 10 seconds
Research on the accuracy of different photoplethysmography devices (fitbit, apple watch, etc. ) is all over the place. Some studies say the tested devices are 99% accurate, others say they're 70% accurate. I think this method of measuring heart rate is just inacurate.
This method is commonly used in medical settings to get continuous heart rate and blood oxygenation monitoring. The major difference though is hospitals use a disposable, detachable sensor element hooked up to a powerful machine. It's not accurate for diagnosing medical conditions, but it is very useful to detect if someone's heart is still beating at a safe rate and fresh blood is reaching their extremities.

"the age of arduino"? it's been around for a while (2005-ish?) and based on a chip much older if I remeber correctly. The thing of the present seems more like ARM and the espxx series :D
Great video Scott, I got a doubt: How do some manufacturers manage to calculate (because as far as I know, they don't sense) blood pressure? Thanks a lot buddy, regards from México!
I'm a medical assistant and measuring blood pressure is my bread and butter. The short answer is they don't do a good job. But to explain that further, let me explain how it is done manually, which is still the most accurate. The cuff is inflated to a number higher than your blood pressure and with the stethoscope we listen for a heart beat. Once it drops to the right pressure, we can hear your heart beat in your arm. We record that number as the systolic pressure (top number). As the pressure continues to drop we eventually stop hearing your heartbeat. Once we no longer hear it, we record that pressure as the diastolic pressure (bottom number). Automated cuffs try to do the same task of 'listening' with pressure sensors and airflow sensors. They do a reasonably good job but it is still not as trustworthy as a manual reading. Watches try to do it by using the same LEDs we saw in this video to estimate the pressure based on pulse transit time. It's a secondary observation at best where it tries to correlate the time it takes for a pressure wave to travel through your wrist with you blood pressure. It needs quite a bit of work still.
Hey Scott...I've had an idea for some time now: Making a watch that zaps you with electricity at a set time. I've always had trouble waking up in the morning, and I think this could really be the solution. My plan is to take one of those zapping/pranking pens (high voltage, low amp charge) and connecting it to a simple wrist watch capable of alarm. Problem is I'm just a beginner with electrical projects and don't know where to start. I hope you consider this as one of your next video. There is one such commercial product called Pavlov aimed not only at waking up, but to all sorts of activities someone would want to stop doing. But it's incredibly expensive and has useless features (bluetooth connection and smartphone operation) I don't need.
Hello there.. I've this question in my head that sometimes makes me a bit confused and just stops me. which is: according to the nowadays technologies and those ready to use boards like Arduino or Raspberry pi, do you suggest starting programming AVR or ARM? I'm interested in making smart things based on AI. am I going to need AVR or ARM? or what should I focus on more?

Great video, but have you considered only making a video every second week, to go more in depth with the videos?
GOOD PROJECT!! I love it. @
Hey Scott...I've had an idea for some time now: Making a watch that zaps you with electricity at a set time. I've always had trouble waking up in the morning, and I think this could really be the solution. My plan is to take one of those zapping/pranking pens (high voltage, low amp charge) and connecting it to a simple wrist watch capable of alarm. Problem is I'm just a beginner with electrical projects and don't know where to start.
I hope you consider this as one of your next video. There is one such commercial product called Pavlov aimed not only at waking up, but to all sorts of activities someone would want to stop doing. But it's incredibly expensive and has useless features (bluetooth connection and smartphone operation) I don't need.
Watch the video of ElectroBOOM on this topic 😅
What about your quarantine life?
Hello there..
I've this question in my head that sometimes makes me a bit confused and just stops me. which is: according to the nowadays technologies and those ready to use boards like Arduino or Raspberry pi, do you suggest starting programming AVR or ARM?
I'm interested in making smart things based on AI. am I going to need AVR or ARM? or what should I focus on more?
Did you not need to incorporate an accelerometer to compensate for the movements during running? Or was that included in the Grove HR Sensor?
Was the intro slower in the past videos or have I stopped drinking caffeine?
Gutes Video! Nach sowas hab ich lange gesucht!!
Offtopic: Warum übermalst du mit dem Fineliner ständig deine eigene Schrift nach? Das triggert irgendwie jedes Mal, weil das es danach schlimmer aussieht als vorher :D
