Go library to use the MAX3010x sensor for heart rate and SpO2 readings. Uses periph.io to handle I2C communication with the sensor.
This library has only been tested with a MAX30102 on a Raspberry Pi 4. If you have a MAX30100, please help me with testing. |

You can download and build this test program:
$ go get github.com/cgxeiji/max3010x/max3010x
$ max3010x
It is as simple as:
func main() {
sensor, err := max3010x.New()
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
defer sensor.Close()
// Detect the heart rate
hr, err := sensor.HeartRate()
if errors.Is(err, max3010x.ErrNotDetected) {
hr = 0
} else if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
fmt.Println("Heart rate:", hr)
// Detect the SpO2 level
spO2, err := sensor.SpO2()
if errors.Is(err, max3010x.ErrNotDetected) {
spO2 = 0
} else if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
fmt.Println("SpO2:", spO2)
}Trying to read the heart rate or SpO2 values when the sensor is not in contact
with a person will return a max3010x.ErrNotDetected error. You are free to
handle this however you like.
If you need to access specific functions of each sensor, or want to work with
raw data, you can cast the sensor to the specific device:
func main() {
sensor, err := max3010x.New()
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
defer sensor.Close()
device, err := sensor.ToMax30102()
if errors.Is(err, max3010x.ErrWrongDevice) {
fmt.Println("device is not MAX30102")
return
} else if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
// Get the values for the IR and red LEDs.
ir, red, err := device.IRRed()
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
