1156 - Wireless Heart Rate Sensor
13 / 21 | Revision: 0 | DS033
Practical Investigations
The Smart Wireless Heart Rate Sensor can be used to investigate a number of scientific experiments
such as:
·
Monitoring fitness - after exercise, pulse is timed until it gets back to the normal standing heart rate
(this can be achieved by remaining in a sitting position and moving the legs).
·
Monitoring resting
·
Changes with mild stimulants (cups of coffee or cola – might show less effect on people
·
who are accustomed to large amounts of caffeine).
·
Variation in blood flow i.e. people who suffer with cold fingers will show a very low blood flow in their
veins – try warming their hands
·
Investigating pulse rate with different body positions (sitting, crouching, standing, laying down).
·
The effect of music on pulse rate.
·
The effect of the strictest teacher entering the room!
