It detects pulse by measuring changes in reflected light as blood pumps through your tissues, providing a real-time analogue signal that fluctuates with each heartbeat.\n\nCompatible with both 3.3 V and 5 V Arduino boards, it connects directly via a colour-coded cable with standard male headers — no soldering required. Includes accessories for finger strap and ear clip mounting.\n\nKey Features\n\n\nPlug-and-Play – Connects directly to Arduino or breadboard with included cable\n\n3.3 V and 5 V Compatible – Works with a wide range of Arduino boards\n\nMultiple Mounting Options – Includes ear clip and Velcro finger strap parts\n\nSewable Design – Three holes around the edge for sewing into wearables\n\nAnalogue Output – Signal fluctuates around V/2 reference point with each pulse\n\nBuilt-In Hysteresis – Adjustable rising and falling thresholds for reliable detection\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nWearable health and fitness projects\nInteractive art installations\nGame and mobile development with biometric input\nSTEM and biomedical education\n\n\nPackage Contents\n\n1× Pulse Sensor Amped\n1× 61 cm (24″) colour-coded cable with male header connectors\n1× Ear clip\n1× Velcro finger strap parts\n4× Transparent protective stickers\n\n\nResources\n\nPulse Sensor Getting Started Guide\n","vendor":"Pimoroni","product_type":"physical","in_stock":false,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":6500,"title":"Default Title","sku":"PI-PSA001","price":57.31,"compare_at_price":0.0,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":false,"available_quantity":0,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
