Purpose
This tutorial will teach you how to use the pulse-oximeter to detect blood oxygen level. Once the blood oxygen is detected, we wil know whether the driver is in danger of opioid misuse.
Parts
For this tutorial, you will need the Arduino Uno Kit and the MAX30102 Pulse Oximeter & Heart-Rate Sensor. To be specific, you will need:
- MAX30102 Pulse Oximeter & Heart-Rate Sensor
- Arduino Uno with breadboard
- 4 jumper wires
Important Note:
MAX30102 Pulse Oximeter & Heart-Rate Sensor needs soldering. Since I have no access to solder currently. I’ll anchor it with my hand. But that is not a recommended solution.
Circuit
The circuit is straightforward. Basically, you should connect:
- VIN to 5V (3.3V is allowed)
- GND to GND
- SDA to A4 (or SDA)
- SCL to A5 (or SCL)
If you connect it correctly, the red light on the sensor will turn on! (Here I use my hand instead of the solder.)
Press your finger on the sensor. Remember to keep the pressure as even as possible. You can also use a rubber band or other tightening device.
Wait for around 3 minutes to see the result in the serial monitor.
Result
Below is a screenshot of the serial monitor. The SPO2 is the blood oxygen level and the SPO2Valid=1 shows that the data are valid.
Code

This demo shows heart rate and SPO2(Blood Oxygen) levels.
It is best to attach the sensor to your finger using a rubber band or other tightening
device. Humans are generally bad at applying constant pressure to a thing. When you
press your finger against the sensor it varies enough to cause the blood in your
finger to flow differently which causes the sensor readings to go wonky.
This example is based on MAXREFDES117 and RD117_LILYPAD.ino from Maxim. Their example
was modified to work with the SparkFun MAX30105 library and to compile under Arduino 1.6.11
Please see license file for more info.
Hardware Connections (Breakoutboard to Arduino):
-5V = 5V (3.3V is allowed)
-GND = GND
-SDA = A4 (or SDA)
-SCL = A5 (or SCL)
-INT = Not connected
The MAX30105 Breakout can handle 5V or 3.3V I2C logic. We recommend powering the board with 5V
but it will also run at 3.3V.
