---------------------------- ECG-PPG-sensor-wearable-device -----------------------------

* Intro:
The idea is to design a Wearable Remote Patient Monitor.
The wearable healthcare device can use the data (from the ECG-PPG sensor) to determine a patient's heart rate, blood-oxygen saturation (SpO2), and respiration rate.

- ECG (electrocardiography) sensors measure the bio-potential generated by electrical signals that control the expansion and contraction of heart chambers.
- PPG (photoplethysmography) sensors use light-based technology to sense the rate of blood flow as controlled by the heart's pumping action.
In other words, ECG is a measurement of the electrical activity of the heart, using multiple electrodes. Whereas, PPG is an optical measurement of arterial volume, using photodiodes.

* The project is divided into two parts:
+ The sensor board, which includes:
- MAX86178 ship (ECG and PPG sensor)
- Microcontroller ()
- PPG LEDs and photodiodes
- Electrodes
- LDO, oscillator, Connectors
- other components...
+ The MCU board, which includes:
- The microcontroller
- LDO, ESD, USB, and Oscillator
- LEDs, buttons, connectors...
