Inside, an Arduino Nano is hooked up to a series of WS2812b LEDs. The LEDs are flashed in time with the heartbeat of the person holding the heart, thanks to a MAX30102 heartbeat sensor.

the Arduino Nano and Micro share some similar pinout configurations. They both have two GND pins, two reset pins, one AREF pin, and three power pins (3.3V, 5V, and VIN). Their onboard LEDs are ...

The build is open-source, and designed to work with strings of 60, 120, or 180 WS2812B LEDs. An Arduino Nano is charged with running the show, capturing audio via its analog-to-digital converter.
