A more complex version would be the interaction of two pulses. Two Arduino pulse sensors are connected to MAX and one distorted webcam image is showing the combination of pulses from two people. This idea could be further developed during the semester. | |||
How does it work: Arduino pulse sensor that measures the pulse with the fingers. Usually, this is used to measure the radial pulse. ''This has a reason: the finger closest to the heart is used to occlude the pulse pressure, the middle finger is used get a crude estimate of the blood pressure, and the finger most distal to the heart (usually the ring finger) is used to nullify the effect of the ulnar pulse as the two arteries are connected via the palmar arches (superficial and deep).'' In MAX, a patch must be created in which the data from Arduino is converted into parameters which distorts the image. | |||
Here are some links for the pulse sensor and image distortion videos. | |||
