Basic function to locate and measure the positive peaks in a noisy
data sets. Detects peaks by looking for downward zero-crossings
in the smoothed third derivative that exceed SlopeThreshold
and peak amplitudes that exceed AmpThreshold. Determines,
position, height, and approximate width of each peak by least-squares
curve-fitting the log of top part of the peak with a parabola.
Tiny Planet is small device connected to a GSM cell phone. When the mobile receives a predefined SMS (text message), like "Activate burglar alarm" or "Start backup pump", the circuit automatically recognizes it as a command, and switches the output port accordingly. Besides switching the port on or off, the user can pulse it for a short period (e.g. 鈥淩eboot remote server鈥?.
This application report discusses the design of non-invasive optical plethysmography
also called as pulsoximeter using the MSP430FG437 Microcontroller (MCU). The
pulsoximeter consists of a peripheral probe combined with the MCU displaying the
oxygen saturation and pulse rate on a LCD glass. The same sensor is used for both
heart-rate detection and pulsoximetering in this application. The probe is placed on a
peripheral point of the body such as a finger tip, ear lobe or the nose. The probe
includes two light emitting diodes (LEDs), one in the visible red spectrum (660nm) and
the other in the infrared spectrum (940nm). The percentage of oxygen in the body is
worked by measuring the intensity from each frequency of light after it transmits
through the body and then calculating the ratio between these two intensities.
Some time during my development works I had the need of printing the contents of a ListView control. So I wrote down the code for a custom control, named PrintableListView, that solved the following two problems:
* extend the print on multiple pages when the width of the list exceeds the width of the print page,
* shrink, optionally, the list in a way that the resulting width fits o
