ECG on a breadbord

[minde]

Hello everyone,

I am doing a project where I am using a breadbord. I have build an ECG circuit on it. My next task is to transfer this signal wirelessly to pc. Preferably the range should be up to 100m. What ADC and device to transmit the signal to PC would be the best?

Minde,

100m is within the range of BlueTooth; which is probably the best way to tranfer it. Other alternative could be WLAN, but is harder to setup and maintain.

In both cases you'd need a µC to handle the protoco,l and that µC could also control the ADC. Depending on what you need to accomplish you'd need 8-14 bit resolution and SR of 256 ... 1024 S/s. Definitely needs some system programming for the µC.

If you find some available sets of µC, ADC and BT (for instance Arduino, see http://arduino.cc/en/Main/ArduinoBoardBluetooth), you'd be better off.

But in any cases, this will not be a medical product, so do no use it on patients!

AND do not expect industrial-grade signal quality, as breadboards tend to catch a lot of environmental noise...
