Description
Heart Rate click carries Maxims MAX30100 integrated pulse oximetry and heart-rate sensor. It is an optical sensor that derives its readings from emitting two wavelengths of light from two LEDs – a red and an infrared one – then measuring the absorbance of pulsing blood through a photo detector.
