Polar Heart Rate Receiver KickStart (#28048)
This component is not sold individually by Parallax. It is included in the Heart Rate Monitor
Experiment Kit (#28037).
What It Can Do
•
Receives heart beat signals from a compatible sensor transmitter
•
Indicates a received heartbeat signal using a LOW/HIGH output signal
•
Wirelessly interfaces to transmitter with a range of up to four feet
The Polar Heart Rate Receiver is designed to receive heart beat signals from compatible Polar
heart rate sensors. Together, the sensor and receiver provides a low-cost and convenient heart
rate monitoring system that can be connected to most any microcontroller. Example uses include
home exercise and sports training.
The Heart Rate Receiver is a stand-alone module, with on-board connections for power (3.3 V to
5 V), ground, and signal. It wirelessly interfaces to a compatible Polar coded or un-coded sensor
transmitter, such as the Polar T34 Non-Coded Transmitter.
Note:
Range between transmitter and receiver is intentionally limited to about 3 to 4 feet, so that
multiple heart rate monitors can be used within the same general area.
