Respiration Rate and Depth Monitor Kit with Arduino Nano + MPU6050
Build a Respiration Rate and Depth Monitor for Sleep Studies — Arduino Nano Kit
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
This kit enables you to construct a wearable respiration monitor that tracks breathing rate, depth, and patterns by fusing data from force-sensitive resistors integrated into a chest strap and a precision MPU6050 inertial sensor. All readings are time-stamped by a real-time clock and saved to a microSD card, creating a detailed record for sleep studies, clinical observation, or personal health tracking.
What You'll Build
You'll assemble a compact, battery-powered device worn around the chest. It detects inhalation and exhalation via two FSR 402 sensors that measure strap expansion and contraction, while the MPU6050 captures chest orientation and subtle movement artifacts. The system displays real-time respiration rate on an OLED screen and logs full session data to an SD card for later analysis. The result is a research-grade logger that you can use overnight or during respiratory exercises.
What You'll Learn
- Calibrating FSR sensors for chest strain measurement to extract breathing waveforms
- Fusing IMU data with resistive sensor signals to improve breathing pattern accuracy and remove motion artifacts
- Implementing SD card data logging with DS3231 real-time clock timestamps for precise event marking
- Building a low-power wearable system with LiPo battery and TP4056 charging circuit for extended use
