Chest Mounted ECG
 

This project is the initial approach taken to the ECG Logger project. It was designed to have a compact form factor that allows users to attach it to their chest to monitor and record ECG (electrocardiogram) data. It features two electrodes that connect to removable sticking materials to mount on the chest and send data to an Adafruit Feather microcontroller. The device utilizes a Sparkfun AD8232-based board that processes and sends ECG data to the microcontroller. There is an on-board gyroscope as well, to potentially detect falls or any sudden movements by the user. A neopixel LED ring is at the top of the device, which can illuminate the rhythm of the user's heartbeat in real-time.
