# ECG Monitoring System on Arduino Uno
In modern health conditions and medical diagnostics, devices for monitoring cardiac activity play a crucial role. One such device is the **Electrocardiograph (ECG)** — a tool for recording and analyzing the heart's electrical activity. With advancements in technology, it has become possible to create affordable ECG devices using microcontrollers and open-source sensors.
## Project Overview
The goal of this project is to develop a **prototype** for recording an **electrocardiogram** using an **Arduino Uno** microcontroller and the **AD8232** sensor. This project serves both **medical** and **educational purposes**, as the design and software can easily be adapted to a wide range of applications.
## Key Features
- **Real-time ECG Data**: Capture and display the heart's electrical activity.
- **Educational Tool**: Learn how ECGs are recorded and analyzed using accessible hardware and software.
- **Customizable Software**: Modify the code to fit different requirements and applications.
- **Visualization**: Real-time ECG signal displayed on a PC or mobile device.
## Components
- **Arduino Uno**: The main microcontroller that collects ECG signals from the sensor.
- **AD8232 ECG Sensor**: A specialized sensor for monitoring the electrical activity of the heart.
- **Jumper Wires**: For connecting the sensor to the Arduino board.
- **USB Cable**: To connect the Arduino to a PC for data transfer and visualization.
- **Computer/Mobile Device**: For visualizing the ECG data in real-time.
