PulseSensor

I co-created PulseSensor with Joel Murphy: an open-source heart-rate sensor for bringing live heartbeats into electronics projects.

Our book, Heartbeat Sensor Projects with PulseSensor, explores prototyping devices with biofeedback.

Banana Design Lab

I founded Banana Design Lab to make electronic toys and physical experiences in small runs. My Beating Heart put a simulated heartbeat inside a soft, heart-shaped pillow.
