The concept behind the Heart Rate Music Player was to control playback of music based on a person's heart rate. The idea was that the music would automatically adjust to the intensity of a workout. A higher intensity workout (higher heart rate) would cause music with a faster tempo to play.
When presented, the project did not actually read a user's heart rate. The implementation of this project is an Arduino passing data to a Max patch about a user's heart rate . When presented, this data was generated based on a potentiometer.
The patch assumes that it heart rate data is being passed by a serial connection at 9600 Baud on COM port 4 (or d). It displays the heart rate signal it is receiving, as well as a gain slider and an on/off switch provided by an ezdac. It also indicates which of four heart rate zones the signal is in, and randomly chooses one of a set of songs that has been assigned to that zone to play.
