Blood Pressure Monitor WiFi Interface - ESP8266

This is the Arduino code for a ESP8266 used to add WiFi capability to a Panasonic blood presure monitor.

Please check out the full project at http://www.edusteinhorst.com/hacking-a-blood-pressure-monitor/

Disclaimer

This is a very rough initial version of the code. Don't expect reliability. Also, keep in mind you're modifying a medical device and that CAN interfere with it's accuracy and reliability. Remeber that a WiFi device emits RF which can affect other devices. If you choose to modify it, don't use it as a medical device anymore. Use this code at your own risk. I cannot be held liable if, knock on wood, your house burns down our your dog dies!

Motivation

I had an old blood pressure monitor that I wanted to make capable of pushing data to the cloud. This project allows the user to send measurements to an IoT log database with the push of a button. The data can then be used to plot charts and identify trends, correlate fluctuations with other health data, etc.

The IoT database used was SparkFun's http://data.sparkfun.com.

Installation

Please check the details at http://www.edusteinhorst.com/hacking-a-blood-pressure-monitor/

Usage

Modify the constants in the code to reflect your access point ssid/pwd and your data.sparkfun.com keys.
