This paper presents a portable heart rate and SpO2 blood-oxygen-level monitoring system with robust performance. The system is designed to be user interactive and kept its architecture as minimalistic as possible. The system is small in size, and user compatibility is high compared with other conventional medical devices. This system is based on a MAX30100 sensor which can produce results with high accuracy. Anyone using this device can move during the monitoring of vital signs of the heart. This paper describes the practical application cases in which this type of system is mainly used where the end-user has size and mobility requirements in the first place. A custom-designed GUI is implemented on an OLED to display the measured sensor data in real-time.
