The project was a need of the moment. In its final form it will be built around a different processor. Arduino was used here as a rapid prototyping method.
Fig. Medical parameters
The project uses a display made by Shenzhen LC Technology, roughly 10 cm x 10 cm in size. The matrix holds 24x24 LEDs grouped into nine panels of 8x8 LEDs each. Every panel carries a MAX7219 driver. The data to be displayed is sent over an RS232 serial interface. In this case the values shown are SPO2 and HR, that is medical parameters.
This display was eventually moved to a different processor - going from an Arduino prototype to a custom board with a PIC or STM32 microcontroller is exactly the kind of work covered by our design offer.
