With TI’s AFE4490 Pulse Ox AFE, you can accelerate and simplify your pulse ox design while still ensuring the highest of quality clinical measurements. This reference design also includes a full BLE connectivity design for easy interface to BLE enabled smartphones, tablets, etc.__ Texas Instruments

Pulse Rate Monitor - This simple circuit enables you to listen to your heartbeat, for instance, while you are exercising.  The transducer used for detecting the pulse is an electret microphone, X1 in the diagram.  The model used has two  (polarized) terminals.  As usual with this type of microphone, it functions via a series resistor, R1.  The potential drop

Pulse rate Monitor using TLC274 opamp - This simple circuit enables you to listen to your heartbeat, for instance, while you are exercising.  The transducer used for detecting the pulse is an electret microphone, X1 in the diagram.  The model used has two  (polarized) terminals.  As usual with this type of microphone, it functions via a series resistor, R1.  The potential drop across this resistor__ Learning Electronics

Rain sound effect Generator - Agreeable, relaxing effect, helping to fall asleep; Small portable unit, 3V battery powered __ Contact: Flavio Dellepiane, fladello @ tin.it

Ridiculously Sensitive Electric Charge Detector - This simple circuit can detect the invisible fields of voltage which surround all electrified objects.  It acts as an electronic "electroscope.  "  __ Designed by William J. Beaty

Salt-Taster - Detects the amount of salt contained in liquid foods; Three-level LED indicator __ Contact: Flavio Dellepiane, fladello @ tin.it

Simple Circuit Lie Detector - Here's a simple lie detector that can be built in a few minutes, but can be incredibly useful when you want to know if someone is really telling you the truth.  It is not as sophisticated as the ones the professionals use, but it works.  It works by measuring skin resistance, which goes down when you lie __ Designed by Aaron Cake

Snore Alarm - The idea behind this snore alarm, is just to rouse the snorer, not the entire household.  To wake the sleeper, vibration is used, not an audible alert.  The vibration is provided by a small motor housed in a small 35mm film case, which can be placed under the sleepers mattress or pillow.  This circuit has a level control and peak display indicator, a variable trigger __ Designed by Andy Collison

Snore Alarm Electronic Device - Here I describe a little electronic device that detects snoring.  The principle though very simple is efficient and well protected against false triggerings.  Upon detection, it generates a noisy and painfull alarm.  Just what's necessary to wake up everybody except the snorer.   __ Designed by chabin laurent

Sudden ionospheric disturbance (SID) receiver - The AAVSO SID Program consists of solar observers who monitor very low frequency  (VLF) radio stations for sudden enhancements of their signals.  Earth's ionosphere reacts to the intense X-ray and ultraviolet radiation released during a solar flare.  The ionospheric disturbance enhances VLF radio propagation.  By monitoring the signal strength of a distant VLF transmitter, sudden ionospheric disturbances  (SIDs) are recorded and indicate a recent solar flare event. __ Contact: AAVSO SID Program

Sun tanning timer - This timer was designed for people wanting to get tanned but at the same time wishing to avoid an excessive exposure to sunlight.  A Rotary Switch sets the timer according to six classified Photo-types  (see table) .  A Photo resistor extends the preset time value according to sunlight brightness  (see table) . __ Contact: Flavio Dellepiane, fladello @ tin.it
