Abstract

The article presents a project and a device made as a band placed on the user's wrist that is used to detect cardiac arrhythmias. A fully mobile device has been created that measures such parameters as: pulse, body temperature and skin moisture. Firmware was developed for the ESP32 microcontroller, and a program in the MATLAB environment
that enables the analysis of measurements and detection of abnormalities in the work of the heart, including tachycardia, bradycardia, myocardial infarction and exceeding the maximum allowable heart rate. Functional tests of the system included four independent series of measurements for two users. During the tests, both the device and the analysis program showed proper functioning and detection of heart conditions.
